Placencia's beachfront lobster festival celebrates the reopening of the season with steel pan - the Pantempters Steel Band play the beach party - and lobster in every form along the village.

Practical

Often the same weekend as Caye Caulker's festival, a few weeks after lobster season reopens; reachable by road, so busy with mainland visitors (belize.com). Dates change each year; check locally. Position is the village (Wikipedia coordinates).
