If we land at noon, what time do I book for the flight to San Pedro, or ferry? Should I leave a lay over of 1 hour or more than 2?

I would leave a little time.

I can’t remember how long we had. Our friends had done it before so I think they booked for us.
And make sure to hit the duty free before you check in with Tropic. We filled two boxes with liquor and checked them. Saved us a ton of cash over in San Pedro.

Same (tiny) airport.

I've done that flight many times as I use to cover Belize for work.

The airport is tiny, so it's more a matter of whether or not your in-bound flight is on-time.

Because the flight is only 15 minutes, it runs multiple times per day. Worst case, you take the boat but it can be rough at times.

Ambergris Caye is great. Be sure to eat at Elvi's Kitchen.
