You may mean Goff's Cay. About 8 miles out of Belize City. A wonderful day trip to this very small cay. Maybe the size of a football field? A dozen palm trees or so. Sits right on the reef so you can snorkle right off the beach. Food Hut sells some beverages to go along with grilled chix and lobster. Done this trip three times and it's one of our favorite cruisin' things to do! There are no resort style facilities here, but adequate.

 

Carnival may run an excursion directly off the ship without tendering to Belize City. This will give you limited time on the cay..maybe two hours.

We book from the port and the last trip we were there pretty much all day.Can't remember the cost...maybe $40 per?

 

You actually sail in to Belize right between Goff's and English Cay..the one with the light house. It's so small you may miss it!

 

Lovely!

Cay Calker is the best. I love going there.
