A few miles off the mainland, the Northern Cayes are
the hub of much of Belize’s tourist traffic. San Pedro on Ambergris
Caye is the main destination. The town, although popular, retains a relaxed
and welcoming Caribbean feel to it. The world’s second largest
reef is nearby and snorkelling and diving are first class. Getting around
the island is easy, by taxi, or hotels hire out electric golf carts and
it is almost impossible to get lost. San Pedro has good flight connections
with the rest of the country, so it is perfectly possible to base yourself
here and take day trips to other parts of the country. Alternatively
San Pedro makes for a wonderfully relaxing place to wind down at the
end of your holiday.
