Book your fishing trip with these guys! My buddy and I booked a 8 hour trip to do some fishing. We spent the day with Captain Lincoln. Captain Lincoln had us on the fish fast. We fished with live bait and had action from start to finish. Snapper, yellowtail, and Barracuda. We had a fantastic lunch on the boat. If you ever get a chance to spend a day in the boat with him, do it! At the end of the day Captain Lincoln cleaned all the fish for us while we hung out with some of the other guides and owner of the company. Super friendly people. Lots of laughs. Great people and fun to be around.![]()

Local Knowledge and Commitment to Service Over the years my visits to Placencia have largely been fishing trips, and I have found that Sandy Cove provides great service & results. It is great to work with locals like Eric & Vanessa who have the local knowledge and also a commitment to service. They will go above & beyond to provide a good experience. Fishing results can never be guaranteed, but no one works harder at it than Eric, and it shows. And Vanessa is a pleasure to work with. Looking forward to my next trip already!![]()

Sunset anniversary cruise Eric was the most wonderful boat captain and tour guide. We had booked a sunset lagoon boat ride on our 20th wedding anniversary. We could not have been happier. Eric drives a gorgeous boat that he built from beautiful Belizean wood. My husband and I shared wine and snacks on our cruise, a delightful touch. Eric answered every single question we had while expertly navigating us through the lagoon. Don't miss this experience. We will most certainly be back.![]()

Wonderful Sunset Cruise- Beautiful experience We took a sunset cruise in Aug during our visit to Placencia with Sandy Cove and it was amazing. Our guide was awesome, very informative & very sweet. He knew all the answers to our questions & this was not our first time to Belize. This is a must do if you haven’t done one if you can spare the time, it’s absolutely stunning. We’ve done many things in Belize and I must say Sandy cove is top notch and we will be doing more things with them when we return. A+++ all the way.![]()

Wonderful family adventure with excellent people! We had a wonderful day thanks to Eric and Vanessa! We had a very successful morning of reef fishing followed by a delicious home made lunch. We enjoyed an afternoon snorkeling trip where Eric pointed out and identified every creature we came across. We were sent home with fresh, delicious fish steaks for dinner. I could not recommend these wonderful people more! We look forward to going back for more family adventures with Sandy Cove in the future!![]()

Awesome!! Went on the sunset and snorkeling tour with Eric last week and was blown away. The snorkeling was amazing with the most vibrant and robust reef we’ve seen. The trip ended with a relaxing sunset ride back to the marina. Would highly recommend setting up a tour with Vanessa and Eric when you’re in town. We will be back when we return to Placencia!![]()

Awesome day of snorkeling! We were in Placencia in February, and some friends invited us to join them for a day of snorkeling. What an awesome day!!! We snorkeled in 3 different areas, swam with large tortoises, rays and sharks. Also had a delicious lunch, cooked by Eric's mom!![]()

A great experience in a beautiful place We did a morning of fishing with Eric. A truly wonderful experience. He was very knowledgeable of all the spots to fish. He taught me to how to cast and we caught lots of fish.

Sandy Cove is bar the best tour operator in Belize. Their team is professional, timely and so capable and their tours are private and bespoke. We went fishing, caught wonderful fish that our captain graciously cleaned for us and were given opportunities to swim in the gorgeous caye waters when we needed to cool off. Our second trip out with Sandy Cove was even more memorable as weather threatened the whole day but Captain Hank took such gentle and generous care of all of us and waited out the weather patiently until he could take us out on a final Belize adventure not wanting our last day to be ‘lost’. He made us the most delicious conch ceviche, cut up fresh fruits and coconuts for us on the beach and waited out the weather until we could go out and I know we will never forget our day with him on adventure and on the beach. Thank you Sandy Cove for your team and your flexibility and your genuine care of your guests!![]()

Sandy Cove BZ Tours only does private tours. Which we love! My wife and I went on a snorkeling tour to Laughing Bird Caye. We were the first boat to arrive to the caye. Giving us time to explore before all the other boat tours arrived. Our guide, Eric, was fantastic. Very knowledgeable and experienced. He took the time to show us everything. Which was easy because there were only two of us on the private tour. We did a tour with Capt Jacs a couple days prior with 28 other people on the same boat/tour. That wasn't nearly as enjoyable. Hands down, use Sandy Cove BZ Tours for a much better quality tour.![]()

Had an amazing trip to Laughing Bird Caye! Michael was an amazing guide. His passion for the underwater ecosystem was contagious and exciting. Vanessa organized a great trip and delicious lunch for us that Michael grilled at the caye. The caye itself was beautiful. Bring sunscreen :)![]()

We had a fantastic snorkeling tour to Laughing Bird Caye! Michael and Vanessa were very kind, accommodating, and knowledgeable. Michael made us an excellent lunch and pointed out all kinds of fish and coral throughout the day. I'd highly recommend them to anyone visiting Placencia!![]()

We enjoyed a morning of snorkeling at Laughing Bird Caye. Mr T drove the boat and Alan was our host and guide. Alan did a great job of shepherding us around the reef, showing us so much marine life, and checking on us. The shore lunch of jerked chicken, rice and beans, fried plantains, and slaw were great. We were also served cold beer and rum punch. It was so beautiful, relaxing, planned.![]()
