Tucked along the coast of Ambergris Caye, John’s Escape Bar & Grill has a connection to one of Belize’s most controversial former residents. Named after antivirus-software pioneer John McAfee and located on or near his former beachfront property north of San Pedro, the bar’s name playfully referenced both a tropical escape and McAfee’s dramatic flight from Belize in 2012.
