Legend has it, Madonna’s song “La Isla Bonita” is about San Pedro, Belize. Whether that is true or not, you often hear the addictive tune as you walk around the charming coastal town, shop in the local boutiques, or have lunch at a beachfront restaurant.
San Pedro is located on the island of Ambergris Caye in Belize, which is both a Caribbean and a Central American country. The island is only 25 miles by 1 mile wide but it is a thriving place that offers many activities and celebrations, and is an increasingly popular tourist destination. In fact, CNN Travel named Belize one of the best destinations to visit in 2023.

This is now a bit further out on the water, it's only single floor now but it's definitely bigger. The food is delicious and the drinks are great. In between it and the dock is an excellent scuba diving shop called Reef Adventures Belize, amazing people, beautiful dives. 10/10 would recommend

Hues Of Blue In San Pedro, Belize

Load More Replies...Don't be fooled by these photos. While Belize IS incredibly beautiful, I was shocked upon doing a road trip throughout Belize that it is actually quite impoverished and kept so by its British colonizing parent. This was precovid and inflation was already through the roof, most homes were in pretty disheveled shaped, plumbing was iffy, and vacant lots of rubble were guarded by packs of dogs that howl and bark throughout each night. The capital of Belmopan doesn't even have a paved road. Surprisingly enough, we did find an Amish community that had carved out a homestead in the middle of the northern jungle; we picked up a hitchhiker from their community on our way back into town. Through our shared used of poor Spanish we were able to communicate that he was heading our way, back to Belize city to visit a family member who sawed his thumb off days before.
A few words to de wise weasel; travel more & read up on Belize's history, it's present condition & how far it's come as an independent nation after shrugging off it's "british colonizers" over 42yrs ago! If you were there recently you must have traversed on one of de few dirt roads in capital but I can confirm that at de least, there are just as many paved roads as there is dirt! It is considered a "third world" country & so not perfect nor as rich as many other countries! Go back & mingle with ordinary Belizeans & you will find them friendly, gracious & helpful!
