Belize is located on the east coast of Central America in the heart of the Caribbean Basin. Featuring 185 miles of adjacent reef, dozens of cayes and three magnificent atolls, the country is unique, a paradise for those who cherish such a rich and unspoiled environment. Whether you are seeking a romantic honeymoon getaway at a luxurious beach resort, a family that takes in wildlife and archeology, or a high adventure expedition into the remote locales, there is something for everyone.
Jaguar - Belize PreserveINLAND TOURS AND ATTRACTIONS:
Belize is alive with an unspoiled rainforest and exotic animals in all shapes and sizes… An extraordinary amount of mammals are found in the jungle, a reflection of the country's geography, low population, extensive forests and savannahs, and the stringent laws that afford protection to vulnerable species.

As is the case through much of the world, many of the nearly 150 species of mammals that are found in Belize are nocturnal. However, there is a better than average chance of seeing an ocelot, peccary, coatimundi or even an elusive jaguar - all are found here in good numbers. The howler monkey, known locally as the baboon, is another mammal of the country's rich rainforest. Howlers live in small bands in lowland forest, especially along rivers.

The underwater world of Belize is vibrant and diverse. Home to some of the most unique geological formations, it is a profusion of colors and exotic marine life. When it comes to world-class dive destinations, this exotic country is at the top of everybody’s list - and with good reason. Belize possesses the largest and most prolific barrier reef in the western hemisphere. It is also home to nearly 400 species of fish, more than 70 types of hard corals and three of the four atolls found in the Western Hemisphere…

World renowned dive sites include the Great Blue Hole at Lighthouse Reef and the Gladden Spit, a portion of its Southern Barrier reef that provides a heaven for the whale sharks that migrates there on an annual basis.
