The Perfect Caribbean escape | Belize Snorkeling At Laughing Bird Caye National Park

The boat ride out to Laughing Bird Caye was not only short-lived but also it was fun as we sped past a number of the inner cayes. We departed from Placencia village and took a boat ride out to the island for our Belize snorkeling trip. I knew I was not only visiting an island but a protected one. I have visited other cayes in Belize such as the popular San Pedro, Ambergris Caye and the laid-back Caye Caulker but I had never visited an island that is also a National Park and a World Heritage Site, protected for its […]

Your Top 3 ‘Must Visit’ Belize Best Islands

Belize is a natural beauty filled with an array of diversity. In Belize islands are commonly called ‘cayes’, pronounced ‘keys’. This tiny English speaking country is certainly blessed with many beautiful and immaculate islands, which are but only a short distance away from one another. My top three must visit Belize best islands are: San Pedro Ambergris Caye, Caye Caulker, and Laughing Bird Caye National Park.

San Pedro Ambergris Caye is known to be the largest of Belize’s offshore islands and the most developed island- here you can dive the Christ of the Abyss.  The town, San Pedro, is where […]

Belize Tourism, A Melting Pot

The Belize tourism sights and diversity are incomparable to any other country I ever visited. While planning my vacation to Belize I was captivated by the diversity of cultures all in one tiny country. I can surely say that this was one of the many factors that influenced my decision to visit Belize over Costa Rica, which my husband and I were deliberating.

It is the locals that make a difference. Similar to many Caribbean countries the people are ‘laid-back’. Leaving the hustle and bustle of our everyday life took some getting use to. I had to constantly remind myself that […]

My First Dives in the Indigo Blue Waters for Caribbean Scuba Diving!

Amazing Caribbean Scuba Diving in Placencia, Belize!

My boyfriend Tony, at the time, has always been a diving enthusiast and had tried to convince me to take a few dive courses so I can join him in his underwater adventures when he visits the Caribbean scuba diving.  Till now just the thought of going in the ocean filled with sharks and other unknown scary marine creatures, while carrying on your back heavy tanks, was not particularly exciting to me at first. Now, our yearly vacation trip to a new destination was coming up and we were doing a […]

Dozens of private and public white sand beaches, with the magnificent barrier […]
