One of the most perfect places for adventurous people is the Half Moon Caye in Belize. The natural monument is the top pick for anyone who is fond of animal watching and diving. The place is not really visited by people because this is a hidden paradise. The attractions found here is for adults and children knowing that there are so many unique animals that only seen here.

There are two types of natural monument that haft moon caye has. The west side which composed of foliage with different kind of attractive birds together with the Red-footed Booby and the second one is the east that commonly called as the “paradise island” because of having several palm trees, less foliage, white beaches and turtle. It says that Red-footed Booby birds are one of the two Caribbean colonies on earth. It is said that the bird stay from mid-December usually. Therefore, this bird are seen uncommonly rather than those other kind that commonly seen elsewhere. The monument has also picnic place, visitor’s center and natural walk activities that can give you time to view the different kinds of birds. Red footed-booby colony can easily determine because of the colors they have. Aside from that there are more birds that found only here. So take your vacation and visit half moon caye natural monument.

I got a list here of essential tips in finding and booking for a great weekend specials:
  • Check the website of an airline company for last minute travel deals. Usually airlines have empty seats that they sell every week.
  • If you want to stay in your favorite hotel or resort, visit their website for some weekend special offers they have.
  • Have lists of 3-5 hotels and compare their hotel and car rental rates.
  • Call the hotels and make an inquiry if they’re offering weekend special packages like golf, spa treatments, and other special deals.
