About St. Georges Caye Day in Belize
Military , Mexico & Central America
Ends: Sep 10, 2025
DESCRIPTION:
The Battle of St. George's Caye (September 3-10, 1798) marked a significant conflict in the wider Anglo-Spanish War. The Spanish had previously attempted to expel the British Baymen from the area in the 18th century, but those attempts had largely failed. By 1798, the Spanish had gathered a fleet to remove the British from the area.
Aware of the impending attack, the Baymen held a public meeting to decide whether to defend their settlements or evacuate. Historical accounts note that the evenly split decision came down to a single vote, that of Thomas Barrow, who voted in favor of fighting. The Baymen requested assistance from Jamaica, which sent a force to assist them.
The deciding battle for the Baymen occurred on September 10, when the Baymen, bolstered by British naval support, engaged the Spanish fleet, ultimately forcing Spain to retreat.
This victory solidified the British presence in the region, and it was a significant step towards the eventual establishment of British Honduras, which became the modern nation of Belize. In Belize, the Battle of St. George's Caye is commemorated annually on September 10 as a national holiday.
