An Adults-Only Oasis for Offshore Relaxation: Coco Plum Island Resort
It's time to step away from your computer, your responsibilities, and your everyday life and come drink an ice-cold Belikin beer on an island in Southern Belize instead. Throw in a bit of trolling or deep-drop fishing, and you're golden. Devoid of kiddos splashing in the pool and hard-partying spring breakers next door, we're shining a spotlight on our Platinum Sponsor, the adults-only Coco Plum Island Resort: a carefree haven perfect for anglers to go offshore and offline.
Locally owned and managed, the 16-acre Coco Plum Caye rests a short 30-minute boat transfer away from Dangriga Town, the mainland hub for the island resort and its newest sister property, Manta Island Resort. Just over the horizon, the second-largest living coral reef in the world holds the swells at bay where often, the shallows seem too lazy to even bother raising a wave. If you're running out in your own boat, it's a quick 9-mile transfer from the coast.
Wake Up, Fish, Repeat
Blackout curtains might make that 5 am wake-up alarm a smidge harder, but nothing jumps us out of bed in the morning like the thought of a screaming reel—whether it's a kingfish, dorado, or wahoo is TBD.
Ceiling-to-floor windows mean sunrise greets you at your feet inside their Premium Suite-style Oceanfront Cabanas; that is if you don't already greet it with a cup of coffee in hand (made in your cabana!) on your private balcony. Or, stay closer to the action in a Standard Beachfront cabana that's close to the Coco Palms restaurant, the onsite dining room awash with catch-of-the-day, and a bar that's slinging campechanos just the way we like it: strong.
Always keeping things local, Coco Plum Island Resort hosts no more than 42 guests at a time either, which makes it, even more, relaxing for your large group or even if you're looking for a romantic getaway. Because is there anything better than a fishing date? Each of the 18 stand-alone private cabanas, all steps from the beach, means you're just steps away from a peaceful seaside amble.
But their overwater bungalows are the envy of the masses. Sleeping up to six people at a time, this 3-bedroom bungalow is the ultimate villa to share with your fishing crew, complete with a full kitchen, wraparound veranda, and entirely air-conditioned.
Vacation On Your Terms
So far, your hardest choice on the island is to pick between standard beachfront cabanas, suite-style oceanfront cabanas, premium suite-style oceanfront cabanas, or their plush overwater villas. We're proud to welcome the luxurious Coco Plum Island Resort, a favorite with travelers who love fishing, diving, and snorkeling, as a Premium Sponsor for the 13th Annual Belikin Blue Water Classic!
