35 Years of Island Stories. A Lifetime of Community Connection.
Since 1991, The San Pedro Sun has been telling the stories that make Ambergris Caye special. From breaking news and community milestones to island traditions and tourism developments, we connect readers with the people, places, and events shaping life in San Pedro, Belize.
As Ambergris Caye’s oldest newspaper, our roots run deep. Owned and operated by Tamara and Ron Sniffin, The San Pedro Sun has grown alongside the island while keeping community journalism at its heart. For more than three decades, we have documented achievements, shared concerns, celebrated local talent, and helped readers understand the changes happening around them.
Our stories reach far beyond the island. International subscribers have long kept their connection to Belize through our pages, while our print and digital platforms bring island news to residents, visitors, Belizeans abroad, and readers planning their next trip. Whether San Pedro is home or a place you hold close, The San Pedro Sun helps you stay connected.
Readers can find our newspaper at stores, restaurants, hotels, airports, and water taxi terminals across San Pedro, with distribution extending to other Belizean communities and Chetumal, Mexico. This reach also gives advertisers opportunities to introduce their businesses to audiences locally and beyond.
Our love for sharing Belize extends to My Beautiful Belize, our quarterly travel publication, which grew from The San Pedro Sun Visitor Guide. Through inviting stories, photography, and practical travel information, it introduces readers to places to stay, food to savour, adventures to try, and the people who make each experience memorable. It inspires visitors and residents alike to explore more of Belize, from familiar favourites to discoveries off the beaten path.
Online, sanpedrosun.com and our social media platforms keep the conversation going with news, updates, and community highlights. Together, our newspaper, travel publication, and digital channels offer a window into island life and the wider Belizean experience.
At the heart of it all is a commitment to our community: telling its stories with care, keeping readers informed, and celebrating the spirit of La Isla Bonita.
