Checking out another island – Caye Caulker

This is a limestone coral island. Really a sand bar sitting on top of a limestone shelf. It was mostly barren before the Mayan/Spanish descent people fleeing the Caste War of Yucatan in 1847 started taking refuge here. Most of the island is dense mangrove with very rich birdlife.
