About the Island

Paradise

Harvest Caye is Norwegian Cruise Line's exclusive private island resort in southern Belize — and it is stunning. Only NCL guests get access, so you'll never feel crowded or rushed.

The island sits on the edge of the Belize Barrier Reef with calm, clear water perfect for swimming and snorkeling. Inland, the lush Belizean rainforest is just minutes away by boat or tour.

Everything is designed for maximum relaxation and fun. And with your $50 shore excursion credit, you can upgrade your island experience from the very start.

Helpful Tips

Know Before You Go

Make the most of your private island day with these quick tips.

🎟️ Private Access

This island is exclusively for NCL guests. No outside crowds — just your fellow Dew Crew members and other Norwegian passengers.

🍹 Open Bar Applies

Your Free at Sea open bar package from the Norwegian Viva works at the island bars. Drinks are included!

☀️ Bring Sunscreen

There's very little shade on a private beach. Load up on sunscreen and bring a hat — the Caribbean sun is strong.

💵 Currency

US Dollars are accepted everywhere on the island. The Belize Dollar is 2:1 with USD if you venture off island.

🏊 Swim Conditions

The water around Harvest Caye is calm and shallow — ideal for families and non-swimmers. Great for kids of all ages.

🌴 Getting There

A short tender (small boat) ride from the ship brings you to the island dock. It's quick, easy, and part of the fun.
