don't stay in seaside cabanas!
In short, this is the worst hotel service and rooms! We got no help taking our bags to the room in the second floor. It was blazing hot outside and the air conditioner in the room didn't work only after two or three hours they were able to move us to a ...

The Blue Hole
... a rickety old bus which we were seriously contemplating its safety but decided to go for it anyway! Made it across the border and to Belize City which is like no city I've ever seen before, it was low, colourful and very tropical! Then got a boat ...
San Pedro
We stayed at a room at Ruby's in San Pedro. Our bed was just a 6 inch peice of foam, but felt like heaven compared to the one we had in Tulum. The vibe there was really laid back. After a nice cold shower we went to dinner with a ...

Rojo Lounge[ing] Day
Today we spent most of the day eating, drinking, and sunning poolside two doors down at our favorite spot "Rojo Lounge"! Met some new friends there from Cali--a guy named Hansen and his dog Clipper. We had a big cook out and dance on the back ...
We gave Elizabeth a Hurricane for her B-day!
... Salinas, we found delicious fresh Mexican pastries. Best of all on the way home we found the best produce vendor in Belize and bought squash, tomatoes, lettuce, pineapple, mango, papaya. avocados, limes and potatoes. San Pedro became a vitual ghost town ...
Eagle Ray and the Key to The Caribbean...
... like baby mice, and tour companies like rabbits. And quite rightly so. Just off the coast of Caye Caulker toward the island of Ambergris Caye lies the Kol Chan (think this is right) Marine Park. No fishing, no poaching, and no touching the coral! We'd ...
Jo doesn't like old stuff
... boat that took us into Belize, to the town of Punta Gorda, before catching an onward bus onto Dangriga. Dangriga and Belize generally, has had a completely different feel to anywhere else we’ve been so far, with a large Garifuna population and ...
Mangia, Comer, Manger, Eat, Eten, Essen
We are staying at the Exotic Caye Beach Resort, with its down to earth Crazy Canuck bar, and our room has a separate sitting area and kitchenette, but we are on vacation after all so cooking has not been a priority, other than a great cup of coffee ...
Lazy Day...but then there's KAYAKING!
Maybe I will take a run on the beach soon... I am a little hottt today! My back got a bit of a sunburn while snorkeling yesterday. Woke up to a great breakfast again this morning: strawberry jam toast, fried potatoes and onions, turkey ...
Ambergis Caye
... say, we made the boat on time. The boat ride took a bout two hous. Now I'm on a beautiful and small tropical island in Belize. It is really narrow ( about 6 blocks) but pretty long. Went for a swim today. Water temp is around 75 i'm guessing. The scots ...
Drinks, Music and Sun Oh My!
... and not worry about getting Internet installed or finding a cell phone to use. We decided to take the water taxi over to Caye Caulker. We walked around the island, taking in the views of the brightly painted houses and the outdoor restaurants. Once we ...
Ambergris Caye, a fantasy-type island
What a great island getaway this is going to be, no cars to speak of, except for the occasional delivery truck, mostly scooters and bicycles, so we decide to follow the masses and rent bikes for the week as well. We are staying about 2 miles from the ...
Sharks and Rays (sounds like baseball teams)
Yesterday's Shark Ray Alley tour started slow, after 20 minutes in the water we had only encountered maybe a half dozen rays but I must say it is still an overwhelming sight when out of the dark, fleetingly, you see these angel like creatures ...
The Belize Zoo on the way to San Pedro
... documentary in Belize and when they finished filming they were going to destroy the animals. She protested and applied to the Belize government for land and funding to start a zoo to preserve the animals. The government provided the land and money ...
The Plan
So I wanted to get out of dodge and move to a tropical paradise. First I had to have a plan...much like a map to figure out how I was going to get there. I was single,no kids, no pets, in my late thirties and had the confidence to make this decision. ...
Fishing for Bara.... Barracuda that is
... , we decided to snorkel straight away to wake us up. There was a reef nearby (there is always reef nearby in Ambergris Caye) so we snorkelled for approximately the next hour. After this we did some more fishing where Brendan, Jane and Jake all ...
Sting ray assault
... , Airline quality seating, the list went on. I'm talking about the boat from Chetumal ( Mexico ) to the island of Ambergys Caye in Belize that we just took. Nothing like it, let me tell you, but it was the easiest immigration control I had ever ...
Diving - Blue Hole and 2 others reefs (names tbc)
... To complicate matters I can't find my PADI card anywhere, I had it yesterday but no idea where it is today…. Thankfully this is Belize and I mange to persuade the dive leader that I’m good via a fully signed off log book. We arrive at the Blue ...
San Pedro - quickest stop ever
... , pushed by the wind. We had been told that San Pedro was expensive, so arrived at the dock on one side of the island and walked straight through to the other side and caught the ferry to Caye Caulker - easy peasy. Total cost for two ferries for two ...
Honeymoon was the best ever!!
We spent thousands of dollars to go there. We are penny pinchers too, so that says something. It was worth every ...
Un-"BELIZE"-able!!
... run down, especially as we entered the city. The bus took us directly to the wharf where we purchased boat tickets to Ambergris Caye, (whale barf island!!). Our destination was a small town called San Pedro. The boat trip was about 1 1/2 ...
Is that a Shark?
No, not really, no sharks in the shallows in Belize, thank god. On the way to San Pedro for the last few weeks, Peter has been telling Colton that we will be swimming with grey nurse sharks, which of course was worrying me a bit. Thankfully ...
Blue Hole Scuba Diving
The Blue Hole was amazing! The boat trip out to the hole was about 3 hours long, so we had to get up early in order to boat there by morning. In the hole, we were provided flash lights and were able to explore the caverns along the ...
Go Slowly
... for this. We went with a rather clandestine recommendation from a Canadian chick in our hostel (there are a lot of Canadians in Belize!) who told us about a man who I have subsequently heard being referred to as 'the fish whisperer'. He doesnt want to be ...
