I had conch first as fritters and then I had them in a couple other foods, Queen Conch is one of the largest conch species. I believe they are threatened or protected in Florida, but Belize has a very protected marine area.

April Blogging A to Z Challenge 2026: P is for Placencia in Belize
Placencia is the place I spent the majority of my time in Belize. The town is a beach town in southern Belize. Great access to the lagoon, nearby jungles and mountains. The sea was right there for Caribbean views, scuba diving, snorkeling, cruises and more!
Small shops, coffee shops, eateries, rum all easily available. No big chains, no super stores, and health food was cheaper than junk food.
