Belize Lobster Fest
There is no better time to kick off summer with Belize Lobster Fest. Coinciding with the first lobster harvest in July and continuing through February, this annual seafood revelry is a popular event throughout the country of Belize. Lobster Fest is celebrated at three exquisite locations, San Pedro, Caye Caulker, and Placencia, for three to nine days, depending on which Lobster Fest you are attending.
Around this same time, is when many travelers take advantage of the low prices to visit Belize, and you should too! While lobster might seem to dominate the dishes at Lobster Fest, you can also try lionfish and participate in many other activities.
So where in Belize is Lobster Fest exactly held?
The lobster fest is held in
three main locations in Belize, each with its own unique festive environment. If you are ravenous for lobster and endless parties, then San Pedro might be the best option for you. San Pedro is known for their raves, live music, and gatherings. Certainly, you can expect more people to engage in this type of activity, especially because San Pedro’s Lobster Fest last for about a week.
Placencia hosts a lobster fest for about three days, and you can expect a bit of every sort of entertainment. Placencia also hosts many competitive games that you can engage in. Since Placencia is a peninsula, you can always take a bus ride inland to go
site seeing,
cave tubing,
bird watching, and
hiking in nearby locations in southern Belize.
If you are looking for a more relaxing lobster festive, then Caye Caulker might be the best option. While you are there, you can do many other activities such as snorkeling and go scuba diving. You can view a full list of
Marine Tours at

If you can afford to visit all locations, then do so, as this event is done once a year, at the most affordable time to travel to Belize. You might also want to visit far inland, where you can still experience unique dishes of lobster, and certainly many more
affordable adventures. Let's go Belizing at Lobster Fest!
