Sharing an email from a real estate guy down there that got me excited about the Yucatan getting much better connected:
Between the road paving project, new hospitals and medical facilities, gas stations north of the bridge, ferry/water taxi terminal, and additional Mexico water taxi routes it's better than ever to get in.
New Water Taxi Route Connects San Pedro & Mexico
On February 24th, a new ferry route was announced that connects San Pedro & Ambergris Caye, Belize, to Chetumal, Mexico.
San Pedro Belize Express unveiled its latest addition, the Three Star Voyager vessel, marking a significant milestone in the connectivity between Belize & Mexico and expanding its service offerings.
The ferry route (water taxi) enhances the travel experience between Belize and Mexico but also holds significant potential for boosting tourism in Belize and facilitating trade in the region.
This new route also signifies a milestone in connectivity, improving not only transportation for tourism but also logistics. By providing a direct and efficient travel option, it opens up new avenues for economic cooperation and trade.
The trip between Ambergris Caye & Chetumal will take customers quickly and smoothly from Ambergris Caye, Belize, to Chetumal, Mexico.
The water taxi service will further increase tourism to Belize and Ambergris Caye, especially with the recent opening of the Tulum International Airport and the Tren Maya (Yucatan Express Train system).
The Tren Maya (sometimes also Mayan Train or Maya Train) is a railway system that traverses the Yucatán Peninsula.
The railway begins at Cancún International Airport and travels down to Chetumal and the Mexico/Belize border.
New Water Taxi Terminal Connects San Pedro & Belize City
There is a new water taxi terminal being built in the southern part of San Pedro Town, which will relieve a lot of the downtown traffic and improve accessibility from Belize City to San Pedro & Ambergris Caye. The new Water Taxi Terminal has started constructing the boat terminal south of downtown San Pedro along Coconut Drive.
The project will be completed this year and is already well underway. This new boat terminal also has a seafront extension, an area for parking, unloading, loading, and dropping off passengers
Road Pavements and Gas Stations
A new gas station north of the bridge is complete and construction of another starting in Secret Beach.
