For the Northern Islands of San Pedro and Caye Caulker as well as Placencia, golf carts are a popular means of transport in Belize. After all, it’s a perfect match for the laid–back lifestyle that Belize’s islands provide. Moving around in any of these destinations is made a whole lot easier by simply renting a golf cart versus a taxi fare. There is no shortage of suppliers to find a golf cart, so you can pre-reserve a golf cart or you can pick one up when you arrive.
It’s more than just a mode of transport on the island. Carts allow you to do some exploring of your own, while still enjoying all the elements of the island. Many visitors make a day trip out of exploring the island for a day on a golf cart. You can bar hop throughout the day and find a variety of eateries, whether you explore the North or the South of Ambergris Caye.
