Hey Axeman--
Answers to some of you questions.. Take tropic from the Internation airport.. Coconuts can book that that for you with a reservation. It cost about 86us for a round trip... they can plan it for when you flight arrives and leaves, and you can pay for it when you arrive at the hotel...
2nd--Alot to do on the island, one thing is that you really don't need to dive on the inside of the reef unless you want to. You can snorkle this.. You also only need 1 bag for clothes, because you won't wear any, and 1 for you dive gear... Don't take too much cause you won't need it... You will probally never wear shoes there,, We don't.. You'll need shorts, a few t-shirts and your under clothes and That is It....
4 and 5 Take half in travlers checks and half in cash... As far as stuff being lost, On our first trip ever to the island, American lost our luggage out of Maimi and when it arrived the 3rd day we were there the people of Belize sent it to the island and put it in our room... That was Great.. I don't know any country that would do that...
Ok if you have any other questions email us RickCheri@hotmail.com We'll see you there...Take care... Rick and Cheri
