Originally we were to leave Crooked Tree by 8 am in order to get to Belize City to catch our water taxi out to Half Moon Caye. However, plans change and it was much later when we arrived at the dock. That meant a rougher crossing during an already windy day. Later, our guides told us that our ride was one of the roughest rides they had ever experienced. It is 55 miles from Belize City to the caye and the ride takes a solid two hours. We sat near the back of the boat surrounded by coolers of food and big jugs of water. Some people were able to sleep on the boat.
