While staying at the Blue Tang Inn, you'll experience a hometown feeling in San Pedro. As our children walk to school on the beach, they smile and say good morning —English is our language.

The main mode of transportation is slow walking, or if you're in a hurry by golf cart. Our streets are small and sandy.

The closest you'll come to fast food is from one of the many snack bars, where they cook your food fresh to order.

ACTIVITY DESCRIPTIONS
While staying at the Blue Tang Inn, there are many fun activities to do in the town of San Pedro and around Ambergris Caye. Following is a list of activities.

SCUBA DIVING
The spectacular Belize Barrier Reef offers scuba diving unrivaled anywhere else in the world. It runs for 185 miles parallel to the coastline, making it the largest reef in the Northern and Western Hemispheres. The reef is located less than a mile from the Ambergris Caye coastline. Water temperatures are fairly constant all year, staying between the high 70's and low 80's. A lightweight dive "skin" or a 1/16-inch "shorty" wetsuit should be perfect for multiple dive days. The underwater visibility in Belize is up to 165 feet, allowing the diver to see all of the amazing marine life.

Some of the picturesque creatures you'll see include the large, friendly moray eels that are willing to be photographed. You will pass by many schools of blue tang, blue striped grunts, and silk snappers. Rays and nurse sharks are also a common site, while diving in Belize.

The Blue Tang has partnered with local dive shops and will help you arrange your diving. Visit our hotel front desk once you arrive and they will be happy to assist you.

Join us for a 1, 2 or 3-tank dive and explore the Barrier Reef just off of Ambergris Caye. We also highly recommend a night dive, where you will enjoy the nocturnal marine life.

If you are interested in a full day dive adventure, see the descriptions to follow:

A headlamp is provided so that you can view the amazing stalagmites and stalactites in the caves. The final cave offers the soothing sounds of a waterfall that rushes into the river as you pass it. Or, you can stop and play as the water tumbles into the river.

Changing rooms are provided for you to put dry clothes on for your return to San Pedro.

Your trip will end with a transfer and flight back to San Pedro.

DAY TOURS

FISHING
The waters surrounding Ambergris Caye abound with a great variety of saltwater fishing. The island boasts some of the best fishing guides in the country. Most types of fish, including bonefish and tarpon, can be caught year-round. Within 15 minutes of leaving the dock, you can be fishing in tidal flats or in blue water hundreds of feet deep. We can arrange a custom fishing adventure for you just ask!

GOLFING
The entire island of Caye Chapel, pronounced "Key" Chapel, is a beautiful 18-hole Championship Golf Course. The four Par 5 holes, average distances of 560 yards from the tips, offer unique challenges, especially as the trade winds blow. The long par 72 boasts more than 7000 yards of extraordinary views of the Caribbean Sea and Barrier Reef.

Take a day trip to Caye Chapel arranged through the Blue Tang Inn. The day includes roundtrip flights from San Pedro to Caye Chapel (10 minutes). While playing 9 or 18 holes, enjoy use of your own cart, beverages, lunch and access to the resort facilities for your non-golfing guests. Just ask our front desk to arrange your golfing day. We are happy to plan it for you.

TIKAL MAYAN RUINS
The ruins at Tikal, buried deep in the Peten jungle, are probably the most important archaeological discovery of this century, made up of some 3,000 massive stone temples and palaces dating back 6,000 years. The site of Tikal is a national park, where the native flora and fauna now flourish relatively undisturbed. Howler and spider monkeys swing in the treetops, foxes, pumas and wild turkeys roam the grounds and hundreds of bird species, including toucans and macaws, are visible in the surrounding jungle.
