Hi,
I'm going to Toronto for a wedding this July. From Toronto I'd like to go anywhere chilled out, with a bit of nice diving, beaches, and maybe a jungle, or something else to occupy me. I don't want to be on a packed beach surrounded by high-rise hotels. (If any of you had been to Thong-Nai-Pan on Koh Phangan Thailand, a few years back, that's the atmosphere I'm after).
I had started another thread asking where to dive in Belize or Honduras. However, I'm not sure if that is now looking too expensive.
The flights were coming in at £400-500, on top of flights from London to Toronto costing £500. So £1,000 on flights and we've not even had a beer yet...or a snorkel!
Accommodation, according to my girlfriend, cost £60 a night in Caye Caulker...and that is way too much for me, if we're going for 10days. But i'd loved the idea of the Blue Hole and similar round there.
However, is the weather even that nice in late July round there? Would be awful to spend all that money to watch it rain.
So can anyone recommend anywhere else? Reasonable to get to from Toronto, cheap but nice accommodation and a chilled out atmosphere, but with some bars is what i'm after.
Greatly appreciate your help!
Cheers
