Stretching for more than 3km along a shallow, gently curving bay, the village of HOPKINS is home to around a thousand Garifuna people. Garifuna Settlement Day, on November 19, is celebrated enthusiastically here, and at other times it's a pleasant place to spend a few days relaxing, with food and accommodation in all price ranges - you can also rent kayaks, windsurf boards and bicycles. Many hotels can arrange trips to the reef and cayes further out; for diving , check with Second Nature Divers (tel & fax 523-7038, divers@btl.net ), based in Sittee River , a few kilometres south of Hopkins. To check the latest developments in this fast-changing destination visit the village's own website hopkinsbelize.com .
