Dining in a Unique Island Setting at Black Orchid Restaurant

Dining in a Unique Island Setting at Black Orchid Restaurant, San Pedro, Belize

- by Dorian Nuñez - There are quite a few things that set Black Orchid Restaurant apart from other restaurants in San Pedro, Ambergris Caye, Belize. For one it’s a great new addition to the southern area of the island where there are very few restaurants. It takes a few minutes on golf cart or taxi but the ride is worth the dining experience, as owners Judyann and Tom Horton have brought their own menu items from California and added a Belizean touch. While exploring the southern part of the...

It’s a Slice of Heaven in Paradise – Victoria House

It’s a slice of Heaven in Paradise – Victoria House

by Dorian Nuñez It’s a slice of Heaven in Paradise – Victoria House, a long-standing island resort on Ambergris Caye that has come to establish itself as a prestigious resort on the island. To my excitement, Ambergris Today was invited to enjoy an overnight stay at the famous resort where I had always visited on lazy Sunday afternoons with my friends – sipping on Bailey’s Coladas at the Admiral Nelson Bar, strolling on their white sandy beaches and enjoying a dip in the sea off their dock.

Keeping One Step Ahead of the Storm

Tropical Depression Two, hits Belize Atlantic Hurricane Season 2013

It is hard to believe what a mess we got from "just" a tropical depression! The storm that hit Belize on Monday, June 17, 2013, could not by any words be described as a little one. Just because the storm is not classified a hurricane it does not make it a small tropical squall. I do believe that we do take it for granted that these ‘no named’ storms will just pass us by with rain. There have been other tropical depressions and tropical storms that have caught us off guard in the past. Have we...

Check Out Belize Through My Lens

Check Out Belize Through My Lens

The ability to capture images and see them in motion to tell a story is what made me fall in love with videography. Recently I started venturing into the world of videos and informing people about the beautiful and exciting things happening in Belize through my eyes. I remember when I was in high school and heading to my friend’s house after school to catch our favorite show MTV’s TRL. To my friends it was all about watching their favorite artist’s video, but to me it was more than that. As...

Is Coconut Oil a Healthy Alternative?

Cooking with coconut oil

Reader: I want to know how healthy cooking with coconut oil is? Is it good to include on a fitness or healthy diet? Have seen many articles on the health benefits, but how much is too much.Katherine: This is a great question! I wondered how healthy coconut oil is myself; I even went out and bought a jar. When trying to lose weight, as I did when I competed, any form of oils was eliminated from my diet. I got fats from almonds, pumpkin seeds, peanut butter and fish oil pills. That’s...
