Caye Caulker is the place to be for fun and tasty lobster.
Caye Caulker is readying itself for the Lobsterfest, as we speak, booths are being put up.
I am so envious. I wish I was going to be there!!! Whoever goes has got to post all the "dirty" details
Fluffy:
Is the lobsterfest only 1 weekend, the 3rd? We will be on AC the 10th and want to go.... Is there a website where you found this info?
Thanks bunches.........
It's on "other parts of Belize"
2004 Lobsterfest
Can't find 'other parts of Belize', can ya help a girl out?
This is a HUGE website! Lots of great info...
Malibu, we are with you. We get there the 9th. Lobsterfest is only the first weekend so we will miss out. But I'm told there should be plenty of lobster around AC. Last time we were there it was out of season. That really sucked.
Malibu: John Boy is correct. On the front page of this message board are 5 message areas. One of them is called "About Other Areas of Belize." In that area is a thread on the Caye Caulker Lobsterfest. But, Knowell is correct. Lobsterfest is only for that first week-end!
Lady Sharon is doing a cruise to the lobster fest Sarurday and Sunday for those that want to arrive dry and have a good time going to Caye Caulker and back. She leaves her dock a 10: A.M. both days and returns at 4:00 P.M. The cost is $50.00 BZ. round trip and there will be a cash bar. Sounds like the way to go to enjoy the Lobster Fest. and enjoy a party over and back in comfort.
KNOWELL - we will be at Sq Nest, I see on another topic you will be there as well.... Can't wait to meet everybody.
does anyone know if there is an admittance fee or how much the food at the booths cost?
When is lobster out of season. We will be there the first week of March.
Last time we were there was April and it was out of season then.
Lobster season runs roughly between mid June and mid February. There are a couple of crossover weeks where conch and lobster are both in season.
ChrisW, the link you posted is to the Placencia lobsterfest, not the Caye Caulker.
