The French girls I met at Wet Willy's:) This was during my final night on Ambergris Caye. I went out with one of the staff from Belizean Shores and Emerson & I met these girls from Paris. The girl in the blue dress was called Monique and is studying Marine Science back in France so we had a lot on common. She wants to visit Victoria and watch the Orcas in the wild, I told her anytime!

Here are a number of images from my recent visit to Ambergris Caye, Belize. I had a few days off work and decided to visit the most northerly Caye in Belize and the top tourist destination for visitors to Belize.

My first two nights were spent at Banana Beach Resort http://www.bananabeach.com/ a real neat resort just south of San Pedro town center. I had a great time here spending the day snorkeling at Hol Chan & Shark Ray Alley and chillin by the pool. Whilst I was there I met a real cool local Gal called Anna who worked in the resteraunt and bar. Anna is a Mestizo, one of the many cultures that make up Belize. TheMestizo are of mixed Spanish/Amerindian ancestory and most moved to Belize during the 1840's to escape the Caste wars in the Yucatan. We had a lot of fun during my stay at Banana Beach and Anna took me to some of the best night spots in San Pedro:)

After Banana Beach I moved north of San Pedro to a resort called Belizean Shores http://www.belizeanshores.com/ and stayed here free of charge for two nights, its not what you know but who yu know:) Belizean Shores is located about 3 miles north of San Pedro and is a beautiful all enclusive resort with the barrier reef a short paddle away. The resort had an amazing pool with a sunken bar, where I spent one or two hours;) I also sailed whilst I was here, as well as more snorkeling, kayaking and even some scuba diving.

Whilst at Belizean Shores I met a gorgeous young lady from Memphis called Julie and we really hit it off. Julie is a enviromental engineer in the US and highly intelligent, so not sure what she saw in me except my handsome features, sexy british accent and sense of humor, oh and of course my humble attitude;) Well that is what she told me anyway:) We had a great time together and will try to keep in touch.

My final 2 days and night was spent at the breathtaking Coco Beach Resort http://cocobeachbelize.com/ and again I stayed here free of charge! This place was incredible and I could not believe I was staying in such a high end resort, I defiently saved the best for last:)

I had an awesome time on Ambergris, met some incredible people (always the best part about traveling) and saw some amazing sights. One day I hope to return to Ambergris Caye!
