Creator's Key Takeaways

If you are visiting Belize and do not have an excursion planned, you may be wondering whether it is even worth taking the tender ashore.

We decided to go over for a short visit and found that even without an excursion, there is still something worthwhile you can do.

The day began cloudy and rainy, but by the end of the evening, the skies have completely cleared.

Creator's Tips & Advice

Bring your driver's license when tendering to shore.
If you don't have an excursion, you can still take the tender for a short visit to explore the local shops and signs.

YouTube Video Description

Is it worth tendering into Belize without a shore excursion? We take you along and show you what we discover close to the port. Come along with us for our cruise day in Belize aboard Caribbean Princess. We do not have an excursion planned, but we still decide to take the tender into Belize City for a short visit to the cruise port. After spending much of the morning onboard—while I gather footage for my Caribbean Princess ship tour and Melissa visits the gym—we enjoy coffee in the Piazza and lunch before making our way to the tender. We take you along for the tender ride from Caribbean Princess to the Belize City Cruise Port at Fort Street Tourism Village. Once ashore, we walk through the port area and discover something easy to do close to the cruise port—even without booking a Belize excursion. On the tender ride back, we head upstairs for a great view as Caribbean Princess comes into sight. Once onboard, we enjoy afternoon coffee and a snack from the International Café, walk the full Deck 7 promenade, get ready for dinner, listen to live music in the Piazza and attend an evening performance in the Princess Theater. We end the night on the upper decks beneath a clear sky, with the moon and the illuminated Sea Witch above Caribbean Princess. In the next video, we arrive at Mahogany Bay in Roatán—and this port turns out to be quite different from our short visit to Belize. Thank you for cruising along with us! Tour the Ships. See the Sights. Love the Journey. #CaribbeanPrincess #BelizeCruisePort #PrincessCruises My videos in general revolve around my experiences aboard cruise ships: travel vlogs, ship and cabin tours, history and information about ports of call, and tips that make my cruising trips economical and enjoyable.
