Today the National Geographic Quest arrived to the Moho Caye. After breakfast, guests began the exploration of this gorgeous place. Some decided to walk around the perimeter of this beautiful Caye while some others, ready with binoculars, went for a birdwatching experience. Most of us were interested in snorkeling in the surrounding coral reef. Many of the young explorers that came along with their family spent time learning how to peel coconuts as a survival skill, they also paddle-boarded and kayaked. The weather was great with a gentle breeze.

National Geographic Sea Lion
Maya Sky/Placencia
Today we woke up to a beautiful sunrise o n National Geographic Sea Lion in Belize. We are getting ready to do an inland activity that will take us to a waterfall to enjoy part of the day and the possibility to do tubing down a river called South Stan Creek River. It was my first time and I was very impressed by the natural beauty of the waterfall and the rock formation. We enjoyed about an hour at the falls then took a drive to the tubing site. We passed by land once used for growing oranges and bananas. At the private waterfall and river access, we did some swimming and tubing. Some guests saw scarlet macaws while tubing. It was a great expedition to the foot of a Mayan mountain. This afternoon, after a spectacular lunch, we rode Zodiacs to a place called the Yacht Club. Here we got the chance to enjoy a performance by the Garifuna Collective, a group that plays a kind of music known as punta. It was a fond farewell to Belize.
