To make your visit to Belize a breeze, follow this practical advice... 1. Don't sit under a coconut tree bearing brown coconuts. "Brown means they are ready to fall, and we've had people knocked out by them," says Ranguana Cay caretaker Steve Rowland. 2. Do wear insect repellent and long pants at dawn and dusk. Too late? Buy some Rainforest Remedy at the pharmacy. It's the Belizean antidote

Of the plethora of activities to do on Ambergris Caye, nothing comes close to hovering over the island on a parasail.
