Caye Caulker (Belize)

...to the idyllic island/islands of Caye Caulker. Arriving at sunset gives you the feeling that you don't want to go anywhere else...........ever!! We stayed at the Rainbow Hotel, which provides rooms that all have a sea view. In fact you didn't even have to get out of bed to watch the sun rise!
