Come get Naughty with us in Belize
We have partnered with World Exotic Travel to bring you to your very own “Fantasies Island”, or as we like to call it around here, the "Naughty Island".
This complete Island takeover is for adult couples only. The Island is located just off the coast of Belize. The island will be clothing optional, just for our week, making this a true bucket list experience. Those that went last year, can tell you how fantastic the service was and how relaxed the atmosphere was each day.
The island rests on the second-largest barrier reef in the world, so it is one of the best areas in the world to scuba dive and snorkel. This is truly the paradise you have dreamed of. This 5 Star Resort offers luxurious accommodations and world-class amenities. Indulge yourself with local meals and drinks.
Explore the island or spend the day at the clothing-optional beaches where turquoise water shimmers in the warm Belizean sun.
Most of these pics were taken at last year’s Naughty Island week. We can’t show most of the pictures because we respect our client’s privacy and we only post pictures with permission. We can tell you that it was an amazing experience and we already have several attendees from last year’s Island Takeover that have already signed up for next year’s event.

Optional Tours
More than a Tour, it's an Adventure
Mayan Temple Tour
Visit, climb and explore one of Belize’s most popular Mayan temples with our Xunantunich Mayan Tour
Start your journey traveling the most scenic highway in Belize. Its winding hills and lush greenery make for a pleasant and captivating ride as you drive the Hummingbird Highway on your way to the Cayo District. During your three-hour drive, you will enjoy passing through many small, local villages and even the nation’s capital, Belmopan, to get a feel of everyday life in Belize.
Jungle Hiking & Waterfall Tour
With over 50 percent of Belize covered by dense jungle and 80 percent of its rainforest remaining under protection, Belize has the most accessible jungle in the Western Hemisphere. It is home to several productive and thriving habitats harboring over 4,000 species of tropical flowers and over 500 species of birds. Two of the most popular hiking trails are located in southern Belize, just a few minutes away from the Belizean coast. The Cockscomb Basin Preserve is a 155 square mile reserve that was established to protect the local jaguar population. The Mayflower Bocawina National Park is a 7100-acre tropical haven of untouched jungles, waterfalls, and Mayan sites.
CAVE TUBING AND CANOPY ZIP-LINING TOUR
Adventure through the mysterious darkness of the Mayan underworld as you cave tube through our Belize rivers and zip-line through the jungle.
Our Cave Tubing and Canopy Zip-lining Tour start with a short hike in the heart of the Belizean wilderness. Upon arrival, you will be given a safety briefing and outfitted with a body harness, helmet, and gloves. Traverse from treetop to treetop, 80 feet above the forest floor, dangling from the steel cables of the zip-line. This tour includes five platforms ranging from 100 to 500 feet of flying!
Diving in Belize
Diving is not included, but if you are a diver, there are some amazing opportunities to dive while in Belize.
Imagine diving along the reef’s edge with nearby turtles, manta rays, or friendly nurse sharks. Here you can find shallow, clear coral gardens and reefs or steep drop-offs into the deep waters of the Caribbean. A natural aquarium teeming with marine life, there is always a wealth of underwater riches in our Caribbean paradise.
Not certified or need a refresher? See our Diving Courses. All of the diving tours can also be experienced through snorkeling.
THE GREAT BLUE HOLE & LIGHTHOUSE REEF TOUR
Explore a contender of the eight wonders of the world, the Belize Blue Hole.
Located off the coast of Belize within the Lighthouse Reef Atoll, the Belize Blue Hole is a perfectly circular underwater sinkhole. What was previously a limestone cave system, is now one of the most unique natural creations known as the Belize Blue Hole. As sea levels rose during the last Ice Age, the cave flooded and its roof collapsed into this sinkhole resulting in a marine wonder known for its sparkling blue waters, a wealth of coral formations, sharks, and fish, and deep caves filled with stalactites.
WHALE SHARK DIVE
During this time many species of fish, specifically the mutton snapper, use the Gladden Split as a spawning area where they release their eggs. Here, we see whale sharks arrive to feed on these eggs. Whale sharks can be as long as 30 feet. Despite their gigantic size, whale sharks are known to be gentle and curious which makes for an interesting dive. When diving for whale sharks you will also see huge schools of fish along this 26-mile long stretch.
This 2-tank dive site can be reached quite easily from Hopkins as it is located along the Southern Coast of the Belize reef.
REEFS & OTHER ATOLLS DIVE TOURS
Discover the magical atolls of Belize, true wonders of the world
The islands along the Belize Barrier Reef are too numerous to name. They include three of the four coral atolls in the Caribbean: Lighthouse Reef (location of the famous diving site the Great Blue Hole), Turneffe Island, and Glover's Reef.
Turneffe Reef Atoll is the largest atoll in Belize, about 30 miles long and 10 miles wide. Unlike the other atolls in Belize that are a collection of sandy Cayes.
Glover’s Reef is the southernmost atoll in Belize and is a protected marine reserve and UNESCO World Heritage Site.
F.A.Q.'s
Frequently Asked Questions
+ IS THERE DEPARTURE TAX WHEN LEAVING BELIZE?
Answer: Yes. However, sometimes this departure tax is included in your international airfare ticket. It is best to check with the airline when purchasing your ticket. The total international departure fee is approximately $38 US payable in cash only.
+ WHEN IS THE RAINY SEASON?
The rainy season traditionally runs from June to November. On the cays, the rainy season is usually manifested in squalls, leaving plenty of time for all your activities. If it rains too much in the rainforest, then some of the hiking trips on the mainland tours may be a bit challenging. We are flexible and if we consider an inland tour too dangerous, we will substitute it for an activity on or around the island.
+ ARE THERE BUGS ON THE ISLAND?
Keep in mind that when you travel to the tropics, bugs (mosquitoes and sand flies) can be expected. We have been able to curtail the sand fly activity on the island but if you are sensitive to biting insects, it is advisable to bring insect repellant for use on the inland tours and for use on the island as needed. You may also want to bring a citronella candle for your veranda in case the bugs are active.
+ HOW OFTEN DO THE TOUR BOATS LEAVE THE ISLAND FOR THE MAINLAND?
It will depend on which mainland tours are scheduled for that day.
+ WHAT IF I GET HUNGRY AFTER MEALS HAVE BEEN SERVED?
This is highly unlikely due to the generous portion size of the meals. We also serve complimentary afternoon bar snacks and generally have a pastry available mid-morning.
+ IS THERE DRINKING WATER ON THE ISLAND?
Yes, each cabana has a 5 gallon container of bottled water. We also serve bottled water and we provide purified water for tours and activities.
+ IS THERE ELECTRICITY ON THE ISLAND?
Yes, we have a generator which runs 24 hours a day. The outlets are just like yours in the US (110v)!
+ ARE GRATUITIES INCLUDED IN THE PACKAGE PRICE?
The package rates do not include gratuities. We have developed a suggested gratuities guide in response to guest feedback. Please bear in mind that it is meant only as a guide for you. The actual amount is left totally to your discretion and dependent upon the quality of service. We suggest $250 per couple for a six to seven night stay for the entire staff. Operating our Naughty Island is a team effort which involves a lot of behind-the-scenes staff along with our awesome front line personnel. We ask that if you choose to leave a gratuity, you leave the entire amount on your signed invoice and pay for it with cash or credit card at check-out. Gratuities are pooled every two weeks and distributed by head office upper management.
+ IS WI-FI OFFERED ON NAUGHTY ISLAND
Complimentary wireless internet service is available to guests the Island Resort. However, reception is better on some parts of the island versus others. Furthermore, our system is dependent on the local telephone companies and telecommunications in developing countries are far from optimal. Therefore, we ask that you download music, books, movies, etc prior to coming to the island so you can enjoy listening, reading, watching without interruption. You may also want to alert you family and friends that internet may not be available 24/7 so they will not be worried you don't reply to their texts or emails immediately.
+ CAN I USE MY CELL PHONE IN BELIZE?
If you want to make calls to the U.S. from your cell phone, we suggest that you call your cell phone provider and ask for international roaming (there is a monthly fee). Guests who use Sprint, Cingular, and T-Mobile have done this and it works well.

With a population of 8,100, it is one of the largest Garifuna (or Black Carib) communities in the world. Dangriga takes its name from the local Garifuna language, loosely meaning ‘here, the sweet water is close at hand.’ It lies peacefully along the banks of the North Stann Creek River, whose water is legendary. The town's drinking supply is refreshingly cool and arguably the best tasting in Belize. The town's dreamy atmosphere still harks back to a past age.
