Bucket list tip: sailing to an uninhabited island in Belize

Belize... who wouldn't want to go there? This week's Wanderlust bucket list tip comes from Laura Coolen. Laura travels the world writing stories and inspiring people. She runs the travel blog Whatabouther.nl and the bohemian platform Thebohoguide, is a freelance content creator and online communications advisor in the travel industry. Sounds like a dream job! Laura has already seen a lot of the world, and that's why I thought it was so cool that she was featured in my book. Feed Your Wanderlust shared a bucket list experience for beautiful Belize. Will you dream along?
I'm sailing on a catamaran through icy blue water, turquoise-flecked by the ever-shining sun. A dolphin briefly swims alongside our boat, and in the distance, an idyllic island looms: our destination for the night. Shane, the Belizean with his wild dreadlocks, sings "RUM PUNCH REFILL!" and I raise my glass again. Behind me, a cheerful shout: another fish has been caught. The sun briefly colors the world orange, and the island doesn't seem to get any bigger. It is what it is: a little paradise. Twenty meters of white sand, a few palm trees, and a stack of palapas… Need I say more? This three-day sailing trip from Caye Caulker to Dangriga is a must-do when visiting Belize!
