Long Caye

Lighthouse Reef, Belize
🪸Sharp reef🦈Sharks🏝️Remote

Long Caye on Lighthouse Reef is Belize's remote surf adventure—a reef break in the same atoll as the famous Blue Hole. Reaching it requires a long boat ride, but the uncrowded waves and diving potential make it a unique double-threat destination.
