Ambergris Caye Travel Guide: Reviews, photos, & videos
For those looking for the perfect introduction into the gorgeous country of Belize look no further than Ambergris Caye. Known as the gateway to Belize, Ambergris Caye is the largest island in Belize and is typically the main vacation destination for world-weary travelers in need of some classic Caribbean respite. Located in the northeast section of Belize, Ambergris Caye boasts incredible diving and scuba diving opportunities as well as a near perfect climate and glorious beaches dotted with pristine palm trees and mutli-colored sunsets. The real estate in Ambergris Caye is simply stunning! Make sure to look into the numerous Amergris Caye vacation properties or – for those looking to really live large – a scenic Ambergris Caye beach house just a few leisurely stops from the azure blue waters of the Caribbean! In terms of things to do and places to see, Ambergris Caye has no shortages!
Check out San Pedro Town first – the largest settlement and the only real town in Ambergris. For those with an extreme amount of daredevil in them, check out San Pedro’s offering of sky diving during the winter months – apparently it’s quite the draw these days. The history buff will delight in the rich Mayan culture of the region and the possibility of exploring such impressive Mayan relics like Altun Ha and Xunantunich. In need of some Beach therapy? The Ambergris Caye public beaches provide some of the most spectacular scenery in the world making the July/August 2008 issue of Islands Magazine feature Ambergris Caye as one of the top ten islands in the world! And – of course – for those looking to do a little scuba diving the presence of the Belize Barrier Reef – the second largest in the world after Australia’s Great Barrier Reef – provides some of the most unique underwater experiences the world over.
