Improvements to the Dining Area


The dining area was renovated, and we’ve added a deck and sliding glass doors, so guests can now enjoy meals outside overlooking the ocean. Meals are served family style and it’s a great way to meet fellow travellers and talk about the day’s adventures.

Tobacco Caye is located thirty minutes from the shore of Dangriga in central Belize. Water taxi service is available riverside from the main bridge foot in Dangriga. Water Taxi drivers congregate at the Riverside Cafe, at the main bridge, in the centre of town. Boats leave this area from 10 am to 1 pm daily. Boat captains try and get 4-6 passengers before they depart to Tobacco Caye, so there may be a short wait before the boat leaves.
