CNN International; Blue Hole among top World Dive Sites

There is some other good news to report tonight that places Belize among world class tourism destinations. CNN International is citing the Blue Hole among the top dive sites in the world.  The folks at the Belize Tourism Board say that the famous Blue Hole is being recognized as the seventh best dive spot among fifty locations in a story written by Jade Bremner. B.T.B. says that various dive experts from internationally known sites like: divezone.net, scubatravel.co.uk, worlddivingreview.com and dive.is helped Bremner to select the locations featured.  The designation gives Belize a major boost because CNN International has a huge following of up to two hundred million households around the globe and in the range of half a million visitors online. Recently, Belize was also named as a top snorkeling destination by The National Newspaper of the Arab Emirates, the Phoenix Resort was named as the best hotel while the local beaches are considered among the best in Central America.

    It is awesome that we have once again made it to the top ten with the Blue Hole. This has been the case for quite a few years now, I am surprised our media just caught on. Perhaps it wasn’t CNN doing the rating and someone else.

    All the others very positive….WITH THE EXCEPTION of our beaches being some of the best in Central America, as a Belizean it hurts me to say this but at the same time I am a honest person but our Beaches are not among the best in CA.

    Roatan, Honduras’s biggest bay island has a beach that is called West Bay Beach. NOW THAT IS ONE OF THE BEST IN C.A.

    Lets not talk about the beaches in Costa Rica because those are gorgeous. ITS NOT OUR FAULT , its just simply mother nature doing its thing.

    Belize could become once again the paradise it once was, if we can get the right people in government. I believe that there are many Belizean American that would come home to help bring the coutnry into the 21st century. The Belize people are so use to being abused by the government that they frown upon that. Wake up people, become like Puerto Rico and become a part of America.
