Trip to Ambergris Caye, Belize - trip report and pics

[kg555]

Hi everybody,

We just got back a week from Ambergris Caye and had a great vacation. We stayed at White Sands Cove Resort (www.whitesandscove.com) and I strongly recommend them to anybody planning to travel to ambergris. We did all the local diving with Belize Ocean Divers and these guys are awesome. Our resort partnered with this dive operator and all the diving went on our hotel tab, which was really convinient. For the Blue Hole trip we used Amigos Del Mar and they were great as well. For our Lamanai trip we used Tanisha eco tours, the guide was really knowledgable and they spend some extra time at the ruins comparing to the other operators. We also went cave tubing for one day, but later we wished we skipped it, since the travel time(3hr)/cave tubing(40 min) proportion was not in favor of cave tubing.

You stayed just north of the town. What did you use for transportation to get a round. I here that mostly you rent golf carts?
Thanks,

Some of the resorts have bikes you can use. It is not a large area once you are in town. You can also catch water taxis in front of most resorts to get to town.
