Every Thursday we invite our guests to join us for their weekly trivia game! But this very cool open air spot on the island has it all! 4 different food trucks serving up fabulous Pizza, Mexican, Thai and Ice Cream with a bar in the middle of it all! Every night (Wed-Sun) they've got something going on, games, movies, and music! In three back area of the property there's a marvelous pool with a warm-up bar, games like giant connect 4, corn hole, jenga, etc, and a dock to sit and watch the sun set on another gorgeous island day! Highly recommend!

Located in the beach area - Boca Del Rio, is the famous beach bar, Nauti Crab (formally known as Crazy Canucks)! This happening place has something going on just about every day of the week! TUESDAY, you can't miss picking a crab to race in the hermit crab races! Rob's commentary is hilarious and you get a chance to win some serious cash while enjoying the races on an island in the Caribbean!

Qué meter en la maleta
Bring your insulated cup!
There's no problem with taking your adult beverages to go with you here, so we recommended bringing your personal insulated cup! Bars and Restaurants are happy to put your drink in your cup - with the warm weather, you'll enjoy having a cup that doesn't drip all over you and keeps your drink cold!
Costumbres y cultura
Tipping in Belize
Tipping here is customary, just as it is in the states. From a dollar or two for bag handlers, cabs, housekeeping and deli counter staff, to 15% for table waitstaff in a sit down restaurant. These are just guidelines, I recommend basing the amount of tip on the service you were provided.

A free way to communicate while traveling
In San Pedro, almost all restaurants/bars/hotels will have free Wifi that you can connect to. Whatsapp and Facebook chat are the 2 most common ways to communicate for free with both local and international phones. Download Whatsapp before leaving home so you can verify your phone number before your trip. Reservations are strongly recommended for dinners out as they are limited on occupancy with the current Covid restrictions. Whatsapp will allow you to do so for free without needing to pay for an international cell phone plan.
