Coco Plum Island Resort

Southern Belize


Coco Plum is the laid-back, but still luxurious little sister to flashy Thatch Caye, just a Frisbee throw away – you can wade across at low tide. The colorful Caribbean-style cabañas offer air-conditioning and sea views. All packages – and there are many variations from honeymoon to diving adventures – include meals, drinks, full use of the private island and transportation from Dangriga.
