Inexpensive bike rentals are available near by. There is something to do for everyone either in or very close to Hopkins and our local Property Manager, Mirko, is a registered agent with Tropic Air and a licensed tour operator ready to meet any of your needs during your stay. He is available to arrange internal flights, airport taxi transport, as well as any adventures you would like to try. The range of things to do is endless: snorkelling, fishing, scuba, hiking, birding, cave tubing, zip lining (our favourite), to horse back riding, ancient ruins or sight seeing. Or maybe you would just like to kick back, swim in the warm waters off the sandy beach steps from the house and then enjoy some ZZZ's in the lounge chairs or hammocks before starting happy hour on the shaded deck. The beach slopes gently out into the water and about 150 feet out there is a sand bar on which you can walk north or south. The lower unit of the house is reserved for use by the owners when they visit. There are security cameras on the property, including one inside the rental unit. You will be instructed, on arrival, how to disable this camera to insure absolute privacy. Casita del Mar is registered and licensed with the Belize Tourism Board (BTB).
