San Pedro (Ambergris Cay) - Facts

Jan 30, 2020

Description:

Ambergris Cay is twenty-five miles long and is the largest of the 200-plus islands located off the Belize coast. It ranges in width from a few hundred feet to over four miles and is separated from the southernmost tip of Mexico's Yucatan Peninsula by a small channel.

The port of San Pedro is located in the south, just south of the Mexican border. This is a popular tourist town with high-end resorts and a convivial atmosphere and is convenient for yachts arriving from or leaving for Mexico.

For most of the year, the trade winds keep the temperature down and the mosquitos away. It is a popular location for snorkeling and diving.
