"Ambergris Caye, is generally considered a safe destination for tourists. However, like any other place, it is not entirely free from crime. Petty crimes such as theft and burglary are the most common, especially in areas frequented by tourists. Violent crimes are relatively rare, but they do occur occasionally. Drug-related crimes are also a concern, although they are more prevalent in mainland Belize than on Ambergris Caye. The local authorities are proactive in maintaining safety and security, but visitors are advised to take standard precautions, such as not leaving valuables unattended and avoiding isolated areas at night," commented one expat who made the move to Ambergris Caye, Belize.
