We spent a perfect 4 days in March 2007on Long Caye with the Slickrock folks and had an amazing time. The food was incredible, it was difficult not to walk away from the mess tent stuffed to the gills. All the activities, accommodations, equipment and staff were top notch. Jim at Off the Wall Dive gave provided us the perfect intro to scuba diving and we were so enamored with diving that we got our certifications as soon as we returned home. Look forward to returning again and again.

I did the Belize Adventure Week with Slickrock in November 2007. The trip went way beyond expectations - the guides are phenomenal, creating a safe space where you feel confident trying new activities (white-water kayaking, caving, snorkeling, sea-kayaking, etc.). Slickrock is extremely well organized from start to finish, the food is good, the places you stay are awesome and what's more, they hire people (many locals) who truly seem to give a damn about the place you're travelling in - ecologically and culturally - all of whom actively participate in keeping Belize the best it can be. I highly recommend slickrock with no reservations whatsoever.

This vacation was the second-best trip of my life, and I'm pretty well traveled (the first-best was a trip to the Galapagoes). My wife and I were there for a half-week, and while we could have stayed for a longer trip (forever, really) we did a lot in the time we had, and came home fulfilled.

Way out among the reefs, Long Caye is a beautiful island where you can do all kinds of activities: kayaking, snorkling, windsurfing. Surf kayaking was a new one for me, but it was a blast. Even if you haven't done these things before, the guides are very helpful and nice. They will make sure that you enjoy yourselves thoroughly. And they have the best and most up-to-date gear.

This trip is great for couples or families because you can be as active or as laid back as you want. You can hang out with the other guests, or go for a walk or spend time in your private cabana.

The biggest surprise? The food was incredibly good! Unlike other vacations where you have to constantly wonder where your next meal is coming from, on Long Caye every meal we were surprised by some inventive flavor of lime, soy sauce, coconut or something else. Its tough to pick a favorite, but the ginger cookies and the fish tacos are contenders.

Generally I would say that having everything right there on the island made the vacation extremely relaxing. You don't have to worry about constantly arranging transportation and guides like you would on the mainland. All the activities are right off the shore of the island, and there is always something to do. Plus: hammocks, food, and a change of clothes are all right there too. It makes a big difference.

It turns out to be a deal, too. Everything is included, so compare it with the price of food, tranportation, guides, boat rides, etc. You will do more and have more fun with your vacation time if you go to Long Caye.

I just got back from a fabulous week at Long Caye with Slickrock. The island was beautiful and we got to learn and do all kinds of fun stuff: sea kayaking, snorkelling, surf kayaking, windsurfing, and SCUBA diving. It was all-inclusive (other than SCUBA) and the guides were completely professional and organized. Our guide was knowledgable, fun, flexible, patient, and encouraging. It was laid-back and fun. The coral reefs around the island were great and our guide taught us a lot about fish, coral, sponges, etc. We also had plenty of time to relax. The island was not crowded since it's private. The food was good and plentiful. It was exactly as advertised: a great relaxing and active vacation!
