Shopping
The most popular form of handicraft are the carvings made from the wood of the Zaragote
Tree. This unique wood is extremely hard and has an incredible grain pattern. It
also has the interesting characteristic of having both light and dark colors
side by side naturally. The carvings are sold widely throughout the island in
the shops but even more so in the streets or on the beach. Black Coral jewelry
is also very popular with the government controlling the amount of coral that can be used for this purpose. Again, you will find it in the shops but also sold informally along the beach. There are several local artists who may be represented in the galleries in town. "Mad Dog Mike" sits just south of town on the beach and does sketches of island scenes. Near where he sits is Amy who forms ceramic creations that have the life of the sea breathed into them. Ask Mad Dog Mike to point out her home to you. In Fido's Courtyard is an artisan's gallery that you will want to visit. This shop contains the largest collection of differing items from Belize and the neighboring Mayan Countries. They also have a great collection of paintings from the local artist, Walter Castillo.
Groceries
The fruit
and vegetable stands are great for fresh produce. The boat arrives from the
mainland on Wednesday so that is the day to buy the best Caribbean fruits and
vegetables that Belize has to offer.
You will be able to find most
items of need in the stores here. You may not always find the specific brand you
are looking for but generally all types of items are available. Be prepared to
pay twice the US price for US specialty products, like
Kellogg's Corn Flakes or Spaghetti-O's, but for main stay items such as milk, cheese, eggs, bread, fruits, vegetables, meats and drinks the prices are the same or less than what you would pay at home.
The island of Ambergris Caye is home to many restaurants. This list is by no means complete, but it will give you an idea of the variety and basic flavors available. Swing by the front desk for recommendations. PepperOni's
