I visited Belize in 2006 on a diving trip so this is a review of both Belize and the diving.
What Made me Choose Belize?
I am a keen diver and had just finished watching champion freediver, Tanya Streeter, in a programme about scuba diving and skin diving in Belize. I was so fascinated and taken by the place that I decided I must go and spent time researching my different options. I settled on a liveaboard experience (7 days at sea) and a week spent in Belize.
Getting to/from Belize
I live in Berkshire so I flew from London Heathrow to Belize City. There are no direct flights from the UK so I had to fly via Miami and stay in Miami overnight. It was Virgin from LHR to Miami and American to Belize.
Coming back I did not have to do an overnight but spent a lot of time waiting at Miami International ...

An Underwater Paradise
****************************
The pristine waters of the Belize reef system, averaging 26 degrees Celsius are a delight to divers and snorkelers. Ninety percent of the reef has yet to be explored. It lies just a few hundred meters fro San Pedro on Ambergris Cay and is easily accessible there. Six kilometres southeast of San Pedro is the Hol Chan Marine Reserve, eight square kilometres of shallow underwater park feature a cut, or channel through the reef.
One of the most astounding places on earth for diving is the Blue Hole, a protected World Heritage area in the reserve system, located some 100 kilometres from mainland Belize on Lighthouse Reef. It was made famous by French oceanographer Jacques. Yves Cousteau ...
Advantages: Easy to read and understand, good reviews on dive kit. Can get an idea of how much items can cost Disadvantages: Makes you wish you were diving!
I am a big fan of scuba diving and subscribe to the magazine 'Diver' which is obviously all about scuba diving.
Why I First Bought " DIVER" Magazine.
I started buying "DIVER " magazine about 3 years ago when I started to learn to scuba dive in India where I completed my Open water Dive course. I chose it because it looked easy to read as I am not a very big reader! It is more expensive than other magazines but it is a specialist magazine and they always tend to be more expensive.
Availability.
I first used to buy it in WHSMITH but it could be difficult to get if they had sold out as it is only available at big newsagents so I now subscribe to " DIVER " and get it delivered to me. It is a monthly magazine and the current price per issue is £3.80 but works out far cheaper if you subscribe. A years subscription is £26 ...
