Ambergris Caye Piers

Belize offers a wealth of natural resources and attractions for such a small country. You will find a variety of destinations from which you can begin your visit. This is no ordinary vacation destination, as the Central American gateway to the Caribbean, this unspoiled tropical paradise offer a unique vacation experience.

Destinations includes beautiful coastal beaches such as the Placencia Peninsula and Hopkins Bay where you can experience unique cultures, soak up the sun in a cozy hammock, lie on the beach for a natural suntan, paddle, kayak or go beachcombing. The same applies to the dozens and dozens of beautiful cayes offshore where you can dive, snorkel, fish and do other water sports.

Belize largest island Ambergris Caye is an all time favorite among first time visitors while just south of it you can visit the smaller and more laid-back islands of Caye Caulker and Caye Chapel.

You can also journey inland where the unspoiled rainforest and the Ancient Mayan heartland will reveal enchanting secrets. Hop across the border and visit Tikal in Guatemala from popular towns and villages in the Cayo District of Western Belize such as beautiful San Ignacio Town and Benque Viejo del Carmen.

Visiting Belize’s towns and villages is just as culturally rich as the country’s diverse natural resources. You will meet a mixture of English Creole, Garifuna, Mestizo, Mayan and European among others. No matter where you go in Belize you will feel right at home, cared for and mesmerized by beautiful and friendly people.
