AmbergrisCaye.com Home Forums Talk Belize Chat Area Ideas for 1st Timers

Ya gotta go to Crazy Canucks on Monday and see the Punta Brothers play. Caye Caulker is a must as well. Plan to spend all day there.

Go. Have fun. Enjoy and as Captain Jeff likes to say, "Live the dream".

You'll have an awesome time!

Thanks again for the new posts! Man you really know your stuff. This will help out so much! I can't wait..you all make me even more excited!!!

Two things i would recomed you do is experience the roof top dining at Jambel Jerk Pit . Jambels havve the best jamaican and Belizean dishes on the island and the atmosphere is just supper. Doing some snorkeling form Coral beach Dive shop is also an excellent idea. have fun is AC

Have your first Belikin or Rum Punch at Jet's Bar while waiting for the hopper flight to AC. Jet is a character. lol

Eat a meal at Elvi's...I think it's a must do for 1st timers. Great food!

Pack light...fancy clothes aren't needed nor are many pair of shoes. Get out of the hurry, hurry syndrome...time seems to stand still on the island. Talk with the locals. They are charming people.

You will have a wonderful time & I can hardly wait to hear about your trip.

We will also be at BB 9/19-10/2. Hope to see you guys there!!

See u on da court KJ

Sir Newton...not sure if you could hang with the KJ!

An exibition game can be set up with the Island Sports Council. We have male and female teams and play on the weekends.

Also if you have coaching experience, clinics could be set-up for the kids.

Milton Palacio (Belizean) from the NBA had a ball with his clinic program a few years back.

The senior teams are basically just for fun and end up at the clubs afterward. (20 - 30s in age)

The Carnival Parade is a serious blast on the 21st. Bring beads and carnival costumes, you might just win something.

Email me if you need more info.

For guide services:

Tony is a young guide in his late 20s to early 30s who specializes in charter trips. I consider him one of the best, born and raised here.

He has his own boats, large and small. So he can do specialized trips just for you, your friends and whomever you meet while you are here. This will save you lots and will afford you to chart your own course.

Stretch your dollar even more:

Change your US$ at Milo's Money Exchange or other private individuals and receive 3% to 7% premium on your money (ie. $1000US = $2120BZ).

Pack you favorite snacks and/or wines. They can be a bit pricey here. If you like booze, DUTY FREE is a must in your last stop in the US.

Oh my gosh, totally thought you were kidding...didn't realize you had leagues that played. I still play on a women's league and for an old lady do pretty good. I use to coach high school ball and coach basketball camps. I wish I would have more time to actually do clinics. I will keep it in mind for a future trip. (as I know I am going to love this place!)

Thanks also for great ideas. Everyone on this board has been so amazingly friendly and EXTREMELY informative!

Take it easy and I am on my way Saturday!!!
