Booked with us before? You may qualify for a Loyalty Discount. Sign in to check.
Palapa Tours is based on Ambergris Caye and offers a wide range of trips, spearfishing and reef fishing to snorkeling. Captain Chip Myvett runs the whole operation and is always happy to accommodate people who are looking to have a memorable time in Belize. Whether it's a family outing or just a regular fishing trip, you're after, Captain Chip has you covered.
His boat is a 25' center console boat by Captain Shark's, and it's equipped with a 115 HP Yamaha engine. It has all the necessary equipment needed for a safe and productive journey, which includes a GPS device, fishfinder, and a live bait tank.
Taking a reef fishing trip with Captain Chip will have you visiting the second largest coral reef system in the world, Belize Barrier Reef. Among the fish you'll be targeting are Wahoo, Grouper, Snapper, Jack Crevalle, and Amberjack.
If you're itching to try something else apart from fishing, why not give snorkeling a go? You'll be able to see lots of Manatees and Seahorses, as well as the beautiful seabed. If you've always wanted to see a Nurse Shark up close, this is the trip for you.
Included in the price are all the rods, reels, and terminal tackle you'll need, as well as light snacks and water. After the trip, anything you catch will be cleaned and filleted by the crew so you don't have to. Bring along a camera and a pair of polarized sunglasses, and you're all set to have some fun.

Local guides that shared island history and facts. It was a super fun trip!
Weather was terrible, but determination by the captain was there! We caught a few fish, not as many as hoped but the captain did his best to get us on some.

We trolled inside the reef for part of the time and caught a few fish then went to a spot to fish for snapper. We caught plenty of snapper.
Caught one big barracuda. Chip worked the fishing really hard.

Unfortunately, I had a disappointing experience after our trip. I accidentally left my AirPods on the boat — something I later confirmed through video footage. I also tracked them using the Find My app, which showed them moving around San Pedro after the trip. At one point, Find My even led us directly to the captain in town, which felt like more than just coincidence. I shared this information with him, offered to come retrieve them with a tip, and tried to handle everything respectfully — but I was met with slow responses, deflection and no real effort to help recover the item. Accidents happen, but the lack of follow-through or accountability was really frustrating. Based on how this situation was handled, I wouldn't feel comfortable booking again with this captain.

Bro other people came up an ask y are approaching them acause them they found ur air fone that boat a rental n I am not responsible for your self u say u track it in on beach in same area n u ring it did u hear any ring around us no so please stop trying to think I found it I don't need problem like that not for no air bud's
Captain Chip loves his job because of two things: the first is the sheer fun it is being out on the sea, and the second is the excitement any angler feels when the fish bites. Being a family man himself, he knows how great family trips on the water can be, and he would love to show others how to have the most fun when fishing.
