Diving - Blue Hole and 2 others reefs (names tbc)
... was not one of my better plans…. There are 3 others being picked up from Caye Caulker since the dive boat is coming from San Pedro; we jump aboard, grab coffee and a bit of brekkie and try and find a comfortable spot to sit…… as we pick ...
San Pedro - quickest stop ever
... . It looked like a Fiji island, except that all the palm tress were facing south, 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 ...
Un-"BELIZE"-able!!
... 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 hours, the seas were a bit rough, but nothing for these two old ...
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 ...
What Day Is It?
... at them to poop. Horribly awkward and we could barely tolerate the place for much longer than an hour. We thought our last night in Belize would be a wild one but the town and the island was pretty much dead so we bid adieu on a more relaxing ...
Visit to one of the 'other' islands
... , San Pedro, to check out what one of the other islands had to offer and see if we were missing anything. We weren't. San Pedro is really a busy place, more people, more golf carts, more trucks, more shopping... just generally caotic. If you are the ...
Summary of Belize Holiday
We spent the first few days of our holiday in Belize, on shore. The Belizian Shores condos were fantastic! They were located on the quiet upper end of the island, and had a great pool and swim up bar. It was easy to start relaxing right ...

Here I am! San Pedro, La Isla Bonita! It is reallly layback here! Blue waters, sun and heat! All you need is a pair of flipflops and a rhum punch!! I love it! I might buy a house or a boat here... ...
Smaller Fish / More of them
Went for a bicycle ride this morning south from our hotel. The island is very narrow there (actually very narrow everywhere). On the lagoon side was a big sign "DON'T FEED THE CROCODILES'. I would have at least liked to have seen ...
One more day
... , and television. I've just been chilling out, since the weather has been bad. I'm diving "shark alley" tomorrow up by San Pedro. It's in the Ho Chan (sic) nature reserve. I'm hoping to see a lot of sharks. From there, I'll ...
Sailing Belize
... was to explore the "cayes" (keys or islands) off Belize in Caribbean Sea. We picked up our boat in Ambergris Key (San Pedro). After a thorough briefing from the charter company, the crew of 6 (us 4 and my parents Gerry and Barbara) set ...
London - New York - Miami - Belize!
... would fill me up after a mouthful - what do they put in plane food Helston? Leaving grid-locked Miami and flying towards Belize than landscape opened up from blue lagoons to dense rainforest, to scrubland and back to blue lagoons. Every part of the reef ...
San Pedro
We arrived in San Pedro, an island 30 minutes away from Cay Caulker. It's much bigger, everybody is driving a golf kart. We were exhausted, and relaxed all day walking around. We booked a room with a awesome view to the reef, 400 meters away. We went out ...
Humble Beginnings
... brief encounter with some fire ants in the park, we head down in the general direction of the bus stop, to see the bus to San Pedro Columbia loading up. We warily throw our bags in the back, along with the bags of rice, spare tires, and groceries that ...
A quick return to Belize
... trip and even topped all the scuba diving trips I have ever been on! YAY BELIZE! Anna and I felt satisfied with our experience and decided to leave Belize earlier than planned. The country is incredibly expensive and we were eager to get to ...
Heading to the Carribean
... We waited half hour for the next boat to San Pedro. The boat fit about 20 people and stopped at Caye Caulker and then San Pedro which was an hour and a half trip. The water was a vibrant green, the surroundings absolutely tropical and we were ...
Day Trip To San Pedro
San Pedro is on Ambergris Caye and I envisioned a larger version of Caye Caulker but that's like comparing a card room to a Vegas casino. It's BUSY, way bigger and seemed much more expensive! Rented a bike and rode North up the beach. ...
Hillside day 12
... Big Falls. We were late leaving since it turned out that our van had been borrowed by PG hospital to drive patients up to Belmopan/Belize city last night… there was a pregnant lady requiring C-sect, a snake bite, and a gunshot wound in PG all in one ...
San Pedro, Belize
... , there were a lot of creepy expats. Caye Caulker was much more tranquil. Lesson learned. Stayed at Pedros Hostel in San Pedro for a couple nights....I'd avoid this place. It was REALLY small (rooms) and the showers and bathroom were ...
Blue ocean
... around the island and ate buffalo wings…. Around the coast we found a small shop that promotes the sailing boats trip. 100 belize dollar for a full day, with foods and drinks, we bought it for the next day. The sailing boat trip was amazing, we ...
San Pedro - Day 3
Today was day 3 of my trip... last night was my last night at Martha's Hotel and I'm not sure how I felt about that. It really wasn't a bad little hotel (I thought) for the price I paid for it (less than $25 US/night). It was relatively ...

You'd Better Belize It... Part 2
... faster, however it is almost 40 miles so I should have known. It took around an hour to get there. I chose to go to San Pedro on Ambergris Caye first, as it's further away from the mainland than the more popular Caye Caulker. The first thing I heard ...
