Belizean is La Reina de la Costa Maya
The Costa Maya has a new Queen … and she will reign from her home in Belize. That’s right, the four day Costa Maya Festival 2007 kicked off last night on Ambergris Caye with the Reina de la Costa Maya pageant. Winning over contestants from Guatemala, Mexico, El Salvador, Nicaragua and Honduras was Miss Belize, Maria Jeffrey. Here are the highlights from La Isla Bonita.

“The first runner up is… Mexico! La Rein de la Costa Maya 2007 is Miss Belize.”
The last time Belize won the title was in 2003 with Leilah Pandy.
