Belize Real Estate | RE/MAX Belize Ambergris Caye

One of the extra bonuses about traveling to Belize is having the opportunity to taste tropical exotic fruits! Several fruits like Bananas, watermelon and pineapples and mangos have a longer shelf life and can easily be transported to the USA, hence they are readily available at your local markets. However there are many other exotic fruits that don’t,  and can only be enjoyed while in the tropics. So don’t shy away from trying something new. Here in Ambergris Caye you’ll find many different fruit and veggie stands all around town. However if you want a good experience on how many locals get their fruits and veggies you'll need to try the local farmer’s market every Tuesday morning on the lagoon side of the island.

      Who says you need a sunny day to enjoy a day out on the water...? The past week here on Ambergris Caye has had its share of gloomy, rainy days, but that shouldn't stop you from having some fun on the water. Sure you might not get a tan, but you can still have a great day of fishing adventures, snorkel around the world's second largest barrier reef...or just get crazy and jump off a pier....        We started the day wondering what we should do...My son who loves fishing suggested we go out and have some fun...Who could argue with that! We started our adventure poking around the reef for some conch, not only is this great for ceviche ( a local dish where conch is marinated in lime juice and complimented by a host of veggies) but they also make great bait for fishing....While we were gathering a few conchs we noticed we had company.
