Reef Crawling Belize

Fri, 20 Nov 2009 03:23:03 GMT

"Reef-Crawling" Some people have got upset with this name - believing it designates actually crawling on reefs and maybe destroying parts of them. Well, let all rest easy in real time - no one touches a reef! That is not a pleasant experience!

Reef Crawling refers to the speed of our sailing sloop when compared with the modern skiffs presently in operation here. Those 40 footers with up to 1000 HP of outboard machines - traveling at well over 30 knots - carrying 20 to 40 passengers to a designated water park area in the morning for a diving or snorkeling "experience". Returning full throttle in the afternoon to the resorts.

We travel "wide-open" at best 5 knots! We do not carry more than two passengers at a time. (Though we have been known to make exceptions and carry three)

We start snorkeling and swimming right at the reefs, as soon as the sun stands bright enough - before the heat drives all the interesting sea critters into shaded areas - where you no longer can see them.

We do not take you to a resort to sleep for the night - you sleep right in the reefs. You can dive until the sun stands down. We "Crawl" to a different section of reef each and every day. And never near where all the rest go.

Further, traveling at 30 plus knots on these choppy waters here is not a pleasurable experience if one does not enjoy "pounding". But slicing though them at 5 knots and less is never a bone jarring experience.

Motion sickness can be a problem. If we are taking first time sailors out - tell us! We keep to the smooth channels behind the reefs rather than cross the "blue" to say - Turneffe Islands - until we see what your sea legs are made of. In any event, you are not part of a group of 20 or more - but a private "couple" on a charter. We listen to what you want and behave accordingly. Communication is not a problem - silence of sailing is golden. But try that on a speeding skiff pounding through choppy seas at 30 knots plus her hour! Tell us what you want to see and we'll take you there.

How to present what our Reef Crawling experience is all about? Very difficult. So I am trying a new method. Following is a dialogue of what Reef Crawling is about.

Enjoy the read. "Reef Crawling" is not for everyone. But If you like what you see - contact me by Email to make arrangements.

Winnie Estelle Charter Cruises

Fri, 20 Nov 2009 03:23:03 GMT

If you want to get great snorkeling, comfortable, relaxing cruising and the very best in friendly service, join Roberto Smith and his beautiful lady of the seas " "Winnie Estelle" on one of her lazy day trips to Caye Caulker.

You get two long snorkel stops in beautiful aquamarine waters; Coral Gardens which is a huge area of beautiful colorful reefs AND the world-famous Shark-Ray Alley, home to friendly nurse sharks and southern sting-rays galore.

There is dolphin watching on board the "Winnie Estelle" on every trip!

There's a Free Bar on board with local rum and beer, sodas, cordials, ice & water available throughout the day.

Snacks are served just after each snorkel stop, and include lots of fruits!

Lunch isn't included in the cost, but you'll be very pleasantly surprised at the low prices at some of Caye Caulker's great restaurants. During your stay on the island, there's plenty of time for exploring and shopping. After that, it's time to join the Winnie Estelle for the afternoon snorkel stop and the cruise back to San Pedro. It's a FULL DAY of relaxation & fun & freedom ... and isn't that the reason you came to Belize?

There is a bathroom and shower on board.

Other Special Trips with the Winnie Estelle
Captain Robert Smith also offers group charters down the barrier reef islands of Belize to the Rio Dulce. This river coming out of Lake Isobel in Guatemala has the only known fiord on the eastern side of the American Continent. Some miles up river is the historical old Spanish fort, complete with cannons. This is a spectular trip and little known pristine piece of geography.

The Winnie Estelle is also ideal for trips to any of the three offshore Atolls outside the main barrier reef of Belize. These are across the open Caribbean Sea and then you enter an oblong reef circle with islands and coral reefs and shallows on the inside. Excellent fishing, scuba and snorkeling. The Atolls are around 50 miles long each and about 10 miles wide with islands on the inside.

Tobacco Caye, South Water Caye and some of the other well known islands along the Great Barrier Reef of Belize are also accessible to the Winnie Estelle. The distance from the home base of San Pedro to Tobacco Caye is about 85 miles. Goff's Caye National Park is a 40 mile run along the barrier reef.
