Ambergris Caye, Belize

Named one of the top 10 islands to live on by ISLANDS magazine.

This could be your life -- a barrier reef outside your front door, an inviting culture, enviable weather, reasonably priced real estate, and a vacation smile always on your face.

This picturesque island, part of the world's second largest barrier reef off the coast of Belize, offers homes and condos for all budgets.

You are always just steps away from soft white sandy beaches and the vibrant streets of San Pedro, where there is a friendly local and expat community and water sports and eco–tours for everyone.

It's pretty easy to move here, too, since immigration policies are friendly, the national language is English, and it takes less than two hours to reach Belize from Florida, or Texas.

Once here, life on Ambergris Caye entails lazing the days away on star-white sandy beaches, spending afternoons snorkelling out at the reef, taking tours to the Mayan ruins or a jungle spa, and then enjoying nights at beachfront barbecues with newfound friends.

It seems that with the Belizean culture, the slower travel via bikes, golf carts and just plain old walking, Ambergris Caye has developed into a very friendly community, and meeting someone knew happens everyday. This is the lifestyle that we wanted to enjoy: one with a lot less stress and a lot more fun.

If you are looking for a No Shoes, No Shirt, No Problem lifestyle, then Belize may be your dream destination in the tropics.

If you have ever considered a life on the beach and need some honest advice about island living, please feel free to contact me and I would be happy to answer your questions.
