Every other post is about crime, or a stolen boat, or a missing dog.

If you are reading this it is probably because you love this place, or live here because it is special to you, or visit here because its awesome.

Let's bring some sunshine and positivity to this forum, and post your favorite thing about Ambergris.

Mine is the flight from belize city to san pedro, and looking down on the water and seeing the small cayes, stingrays, etc in the amazing blue water.

My wife's favorite thing is sundays at palapa bar, listening to country music with scott, jodie, and sunny, looking out over the water, throwing back a few ice cold belikins.

Can't wait to come back, will be there in either october for another 6 months, or january for 3 months.

Go ahead, post your favorite thing, it might remind all of us of other things we like too.

Now I'm craving a pulled pork sandwich with beans.

Dawn with the ever changing light over the horizon, the promise of the day being spoken by birds, the breeze, the sound of the waves on the reef.
Hammocks and pulp fiction and the time for both at once.
People who say hello and look you in the eye.
Being called Miss Lady.
Warm salty seas.
Fireflies.
Butterflies.
Brilliant stars in night skies.
Hummingbirds feeding a foot away from the veranda chair.
Children who aren't afraid.
Elderly people who are cared for by three generations under one roof.
The national anthem.
The zoo.
The mountains and rivers and caves.
The Mayan Temples.
Oh...... did you mean to name just ONE favorite thing? Well maybe the dawn because it opens the day to all the rest.


(and nice people who come to visit and return over and over for all the right reasons)

wow, very well put. thanks diane

Thank YOU for the upbeat attitude and good heart. And thanks too for seeing and appreciating the wonders of Belize.

The view from our balcony out to the reef - ever changing

The feel of the water as you go backwards off the boat for a dive

The first run of a bone fish

The jump of a tarpon on the line

the first mouthful of papaya at breakfast

the first magarita of the evening

and so much more!

When I get off the plane in Caye Caulker in November and everyone you see for the next couple days says welcome home.

My husband and I love the laid back pace. I like the way people will tell you their stories when you ask them about their lives and culture. I love the color of the water, and the respect everyone has for nature and the reef.
