Local knowledge for San Pedro
Where to stay
Budget beds cluster along the main north-south streets running from the water taxi dock inland, with the southern blocks near the dock being the loudest and most crowded. Moving a few blocks north or east toward Barrier Reef Drive gets you closer to the beach and quieter streets, though you trade the immediate buzz of the dockside bars for a short walk or golf cart ride back to the action.
Getting around
- Golf carts are the primary way to get around the island and can be rented for a fraction of what a car would cost elsewhere. Haggle on the daily rate, check the tires and lights carefully, and remember there is a small toll to cross the bridge north of town.
- Water taxis from Belize City run frequently throughout the day and are far cheaper than the 20-minute domestic flights. Book your return ticket before you leave the mainland if you are traveling during a busy weekend, as boats fill up fast.
- San Pedro is the main gateway to the Belize Barrier Reef, so snorkeling and diving trips are abundant. Walk down the street and compare prices at several agencies before booking; the same reef sites are offered by many operators, and rates vary significantly.
When to go
Hostels are cheapest and easiest to book during the rainy season from June through October, when fewer tourists visit despite the warm weather. Prices spike and beds fill quickly from mid-December through April, which is the dry season and peak time for whale shark diving in nearby Hol Chan.
