We are heading to Ambergris Caye for the week of Thanksgiving. We are renting a house- The Blue Dolphin- during our stay and I am now looking for tips and reccomendations from the awesome scubaboard posters!
First- Diving! We are staying about 4 miles north of town. It looks like we are near Journey's End. Does anyone have experience with their dive shop? We will have 4 divers in our group. Or any other shops you can recommend.
Second- Location and Transportation. I am a little concerned about the water break (San Pedro River) and how that will affect our access to the town. Can we only get to and from San Pedro in a water taxi? There will be 10 in our group and the thought of using a water taxi avery time we need to go to town doesn't sound too great. Can you get across the water break on a golf cart? Could we rent a couple of golf carts upon arrival and use those to get around? What about scooters? Any info would be great!
Third- River Caving. According to posts on this site, cave tubing in Belize is a must. Who should we go through? The first place I found who does the trip charged over $200 per person. Any tips on outfitters at a lower price.
And finally- Snorkeling With Kids. Would love recommendations of places to take young children snorkeling. Would Shark Ray Alley be doable or too dangerous? Any recomendations for snorkeling sites from the shore.
Thanks to all for your help!
