for up to 4 people) for the 20min ride across the bay.

If you have your own wheels, you can drive from
Corozal to Copper Bank, which includes crossing the New

ACCOMMODATION
For a real taste of the slow life of northern Belize, spend a night in tiny, dusty Copper Bank, though make sure to call ahead
to confirm that these places are open. The bonus is, of course, that Copper Bank is within walking distance of Cerros, so you
can take in the site at your leisure.
