Exciting Family Adventures at Harvest Caye

1. Dive into the Expansive Resort-Style Pool

The pool area boasts plenty of chairs and loungers, ensuring you won’t feel cramped. With palm trees gently swaying and a lovely cascading waterfall, it creates a perfect environment. Enjoying a day of swimming and splashing in the resort-style pool is a delightful experience for the whole family.

2. Have Fun in the Lagoon

Families can enjoy various activities together while exploring the lagoon. Rent kayaks, stand-up paddleboards, or electric boat floats to kick off your adventure!

3. Experience Zip Lining at The Flighthouse

Ideal for those seeking excitement, zipline across the island and feel the thrill as you soar over the beach and sunbathers.

When you book the Adrenaline Package, you’ll gain access to the Lagoon Run Adventure Zip, featuring three ziplines that weave over the Harvest Caye lagoon and across the suspension bridge. You’ll also get to experience the Superman Beach Zipline, a 1,300-foot ride reaching speeds of 40 miles per hour. Ever wondered why it’s called the Superman Beach run? You’ll be flying face down in a ‘superman’ position, or you can choose the seat harness if you prefer.

4. Explore the Lagoon Wildlife and Mangrove Estuaries

This is a fantastic opportunity to observe various wildlife in their natural surroundings. As you glide past the mangroves on your Motor Launch tour, keep an eye out for manatees resting or feeding along the banks, while your tour guide shares fascinating details about their daily lives in Belize. The family will have such a great time that they won't even realize they're learning about nature!

5. Enjoy River Tubing in the Rainforest

The rainforest river tubing adventure offers a distinctive way to experience the sights—floating leisurely on an inner tube down a picturesque waterway through the rainforest. You'll drift along a spring-fed river, soaking in the stunning jungle scenery. Getting to the tubing location at Big Falls is a breeze, and if you forgot your water shoes, no problem! You can rent them right at the Big Falls Outpost.

6. Rent a Cabana or Villa

Beachside pool canopy cabanas are available for rent, accommodating up to four people. Enjoy food and drinks, and use golf carts to explore the island as a family. Private bathrooms are included for convenience, and the cabanas are air-conditioned—perfect for little ones who might need a break from the Belizean heat.

Alternatively, choose a spacious secluded villa that accommodates six guests, with the option to add up to four more. These villas feature air conditioning, private restrooms, both indoor and outdoor showers, a digital safe, mini-fridge, Bluetooth audio, and much more. Plus, you’ll enjoy personalized Butler and Concierge services for the ultimate luxurious family getaway.

7. Unwind on the Beach

For a simple yet fun day, grab a ball, football, or Frisbee and enjoy some quality family time on the beach. Bring along pails to create sandcastles—kids love it when their parents join in the fun. We call this bonding by the shore!

8. Discover a Maya Site

Visit the Nim Li Punit Maya site, which translates to "Large Hat" in Q'eqchi' or Kekchi Mayan. This site got its name from a stela that features one of its rulers adorned with a large headdress. Although it may not be as extensive as other Maya sites in Belize, you'll find a well-preserved ball court and an observatory. Kids will love the welcome center and small museum, where they can explore more artifacts and preserved stelae.

9. Try a Parasailing Adventure

If your kids are at least 8 years old and weigh a minimum of 60 pounds, consider booking a parasailing adventure. Experience the thrill of tandem flying high above the stunning Caribbean Sea, taking in breathtaking views of Harvest Caye.
