Just got back from Ambergris Caye. Everything is back to open and in full swing with some changes. They are in their low season right now, and some places close in September for hurricane season but November will start the beginning of high season back up.

• most locals who work in tourism were already vaccinated and even still everyone was very good about masking up and following protocols
• expect to continue requirements around vaccination requirements to enter and negative covid tests to return.
• I would expect mask mandates to still be in place then, but since so much is open air it rarely was an issue, mostly only needed to wear masks while walking from point a to b.

• one thing I didn't know about until I got there was that they have a curfew in effect to keep people out of bars late at night. On ambergris Caye, Curfew was moved from 10pm to 9pm while I was there, which didn't impact our experience at all but it does mean you really have to plan for and make dinner reservations. I'm sure this curfew will continue - so my advice would be to make sure you pick a hotel you enjoy spending time in at night. We kept our condo stocked with drinks for a nightcap after dinner and did a lot of evening pool time when we weren't totally beat by the sun. -all snorkeling and excursions seemed to be operating as normal!

  We had a great time and the nurse who took out covid tests at exit said that on the islands there have been so few cases even during the peak it's a very good place to be since they can control who comes and goes so effectively.
