Food Festivals to Experience While in Belize

Belize Dive Haven Resort is located on Turneffe Atoll, a remote location about 30 miles from the mainland. It’s far enough away that you can experience some of the most incredible diving in the area, but close enough to the mainland that you can plan to spend some time there before or after your stay with us.

If you’re passionate about food and culinary experiences,
plan your trip to Belize Dive Haven Resort around one of these festivals.

Cashew Festival

Every May, the Crooked Tree Wildlife Reserve hosts the annual Cashew Festival. The Creole village in the park celebrates the seed of the cashew apple by showcasing how it can be used to make cakes, jams, cookies and even wine.

Toledo Cacao Fest

The Maya used the cacao bean for several purposes. During the Toledo Cacao Fest, you can learn about the significance of the bean in ancient cultures and sample different foods made from cacao. There are also arts and crafts for sale during this festival which runs for three days in the middle of May.

Lobster Fest

If you love lobster, make sure to take advantage of lobsterfest in June. Many coastal communities like Placencia, San Pedro and Caye Caulker all have their own activities but they all include indulging in lobster, laughter and having a good time.

Experience the beauty of Belize Dive Haven—and the whole country!
