Belize Tour & Travel: Orange Walk – San Ignacio – Ambergris Caye

by on Jul.02, 2009, under beach time, Belize, History & Culture, hotel & resort getaways, Tours

Lamanai ruins, Belize

Lamanai ruins, Belize

Orange Walk District and its principal town of the same name, are situated north of Belize City. Orange Walk Town is about 55 miles from Belize City. The main tourist attractions are the New River and the famous Mayan ruins of Lamanai. Mexican influence is evident and there are some Mennonite communities in the area.

Located in the Cayo District, San Ignacio features cathedral-like forests, shimmering emerald rivers, caves, mountains, cascading falls, and mighty ruins. It is here where the Mountain Pine Ridge and the Mopan and Macal rivers are located. The various lodges in the area offer diverse activities including hiking, trekking, kayaking, canoeing, horseback riding, and bird watching. It is also in this area where the Mayan ruins of Caracol and Xunantunich are located.

Ambergris Caye is the largest of Belize’s nearly 200 offshore cayes . Commuter planes (15- minute ride) and water taxis (1-hour ride) link it to Belize City. The airstrip is in the heart of town, so most resorts are just a jump away. This is the capital of carefree and casual: there are no paved roads, traffic lights, and no high-rise buildings. Although most resorts are beach-front, Ambergris is not a beach destination in the traditional sense.

In Goa’s Saturday Night Bazaar, Arpora Beach, GOA, India

by on Jun.19, 2008, under beach time, India

Here’s Saturday night entertainment overlooking the Baga river. In Goa’s Night market on Arpora Beach begins at 4 pm and continues up to 11 pm offering a plethora of food stalls, vendor stalls selling tapestries, bed spreads, t-shirts, clothing, jewelery and everything else you can think of under the Goan sun. Several alcohol stalls lend ambience and the central stage that has featured artists like Prem Joshua is where most people head to with a drink in hand. If you are living in GOA (even if for a few months), In Goa’s is where you would head to a to meet and to be met. And if you are here as a tourist it’s your opportunity to glimpse at Goa’s sun-kissed crowd. A friend who never returns without shopping in Goa insists that in spite of its hedonistic appearance the market is straight and well organized.
