CHUKKA Caribbean Adventures Kayab Caye Island

Project Overview

  • Evidence of ancient traders and their journeys was incorporated throughout the architectural design of this island

Kayab Caye was once called “Barrister Island” and is located near the barrier reef.

Once known as Starfish Island, Kayab Caye is a 3-acre private island located 9 miles East South East of Belize City, Belize. GuernseyTingle worked with CHUKKA Caribbean Adventures to reinvent and transform the island into a unique and authentic Belizean experience. Drawing from the area’s seafaring Mayan heritage, the design reflects evidence of these ancient traders and their journeys can be seen throughout the architecture and found objects that were incorporated.
