Folks,

I'm looking for a quick (5-day) cheap off-the-beaten path getaway to include good shelling-- and it's come down to Margarita Island versus Belize.

From the write-up on Margarita in Am Conchologist versus the write-up on Belize on the Jacksonville site, it looks like Belize tends to have more typical Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico species that I'm likely to already have. There are more unusual species to the main part of Caribbean on Margarita, no?

Anybody have a sense of the micro fauna comparison?
