Island Amenities

Shopping
The island of Ambergris Caye has little in the way of big name fashions, perfumes, and designers, but is rich in hand-made crafts to decorate your home or to give as gifts.

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
There are several main grocery stores on the island and then many smaller shops which specialize in either fruits and vegetables or meats. We are fortunate to have two of the larger stores next to our resort. The largest grocery store on the island is located right up the road from Exotic Caye. Another large store is located south of us on Coconut Drive.

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.

Ambergris Fine Dining

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.

Capricorn
Fresh seafood and continental cuisine.  Located four miles north of town, this restaurant is well worth the water taxi ride!

Sweet Basil
Italian sandwiches and salads.  Just north of the split, this is an excellent stop for lunch on your exploration of the northern part of the island. 

Fido's Courtyard
Seafood, Belizean, and continental cuisine. With live music on most nights and open seating under a large thatch palapa, Fido's is a tourist favorite.

PepperOni's
If you're hungry for a pizza, PepperOni's is the place to get it.  Conveniently located right outside the Exotic Caye Resort.

El Patio
Seafood, salads, and Belizean fare. Located just one block south of the resort, you can't miss El Patio's Spanish courtyard setting.

Chinese cuisine. Located off the beach on Coconut Drive. this establishment is famous for its fresh seafood dishes.

Lions Chicken
Chicken, beans, and slaw. Every Friday evening just follow the smell of chicken as you walk into town and you'll know where to go. (p.s. after chicken, go across the street for ice cream at Manelli's)
