Cruise ship tenders
People arriving by cruise ship currently have to tender to get into port. What that means, for those who are not familiar with the term, is that instead of walking off and walking back on the ship, you have to take a smaller boat to get into the port. There were 5 or 6 large cruise ships in the day we came in but the tender process was still efficient, the large ferry type boats held at least 100 people and we were able to get off the boat on the 1st tender which took about 15-20 minutes to get into the docks. Belize will likely always be a tender port, the large ships can't get any closer because of the reef. There are several terminals at the dock area but even if you should forget which one you come in at it's still easy to find your tender back.
