St. George's Caye
Belize coastal island
St. George's Caye is a tiny island off the coast of Belize, less than 10 miles away from Belize City. The island is mostly known for the "Battle of St. George's Caye" between the Spanish fleet and British resident woodcutters called "Baymen" in 1798. Belize celebrates the "Battle of St. George's Cay national holiday" on the 10th of September.
