YOU BETTER BELIZE IT BELIZE CRUISES
Discover rainforests and ancient ruins beside the turquoise sea in Belize.
Belize is a blend of blue waters, green mountains and wooden houses painted in shades of pink, yellow and orange. Head to immaculate island beaches like Ambergris Caye, where you can dive into warm Caribbean waters and snorkel along the Belize Barrier Reef, the second largest coral reef in the world. Walk up the ruins of mysterious Mayan towers at Xunantunich and Caracol. Cruise to Belize to hike or mountain bike your way through the jungle at Don Elijio National Park, catching glimpses of tropical toucans as you trek.
Enter the wild world of Belize and get a dose of underwater adventure. Then go deep into the forested areas to
meet with jungle creatures and bathe under waterfalls during your vacation.
DIVING DEEP
The east coast of Belize is the stage for some of the most beautiful sea encounters in Central America. Dive the warm waters to find the Belize Barrier Reef, second only to Australia's, where you can explore the hundreds of colorful coral species that call this place their home. Then head to the famous Great Blue Hole, a giant ocean sinkhole that goes deeper than sea level and one of Belize main attractions.
LAPPING WAVES
Kick back at Placencia Peninsula with its soft sand and array of beachfront restaurants and bars. Head to Hopkins Village Beach for a nap by the beach under the palm tree shadows that cover the shore. Or hop on a boat to the cayes, like Ambergris, South Water and Laughingbird, and find even more beaches with soft sand.
JUNGLE TUNES
Listen to jungle sounds as you zip-line through the rainforest in Belize and keep an eye for the howler monkeys, foxes and kinkajou, a tiny and adorable rainforest mammal. Search for secret waterfalls and swimming holes within the forest and take your time to identify the tropical birds around you.
Mayan ruins tell the story of an ancient and mysterious past, while Belize's museum protects the country's
blended heritage. And like all Belizeans, everything is celebrated with good food in the end.
MOTHER MAYA
Head to the Toledo's DeeparagraphCopy South and the Cayo District to explore Mayan archaeological wonders nestled within untouched jungle, like the step towers of Altun Ha and Xunantunich dating back to thousands of years ago.
PRESERVING THE PAST
The most iconic museum in the entire country is the Museum of Belize, a former prison turned cultural exhibition that showcases the history of the country. Visit Belize to learn how it is influenced by Mayan traditions. For contemporary art and souvenirs, visit the Art Box, where you can get your hands on local arts and crafts while learning about the artists of Belize.
FEAST ON THIS
Belize is known for its tasty rice and beans and chicken escabeche. Having a fertile coast means that many dishes are prepared with fish, like hudut, a fish soup cooked in coconut milk with cilantro and okra.

WHAT TO KNOW
BEFORE YOU GO
Play Like a Local
If you're lucky enough to take a nap in a cabana, open your ears to the wildlife around you. You may
hear warring howler monkey tribes in the distance, the squawk of toucans and the ever-present chime of
crickets.
While Belize is home to thousands of friendly species, there are some you should take extra care to respect. Snakes tend to like to hang from trees and drop suddenly when they're feeling hungry or lazy, so be sure to look up. Wolf spiders are large but docile creatures — so don't get too spooked when you see their glowing eyes!
Some of the most vibrant life in this land is under the water. Head to the beach to snorkel among sting rays, play with bottlenose dolphins and find yourself fin-to-fin with sea turtles. Break open a coconut and sip its sweet milk while floating in the salty water.

Insider Tips
1 Because Belize used to be a British colony, most locals speak English.
2 Instead of renting a car, rent a golf cart, which can be less expensive and more fun.
3 Anytime is a good time to visit Belize — the country enjoys warm weather all year.
BELIZE'S CUISINE
BITE INTO BELIZE
BITE INTO BELIZE
Belize's cuisine makes use of Caribbean and Latin American classic recipes along with modern influences, cooking up flavors that are all Belizean.
A LITTLE EXTRA
This is not your average plate of chicken: Most Belizean recipes also include hot sauce for an added punch. Try jerk chicken wings over rice and beans or spicy chicken stewed in coconut milk.
TASTE THE WAVES
Belize's coastal location makes for a cuisine rich in seafood. Try hudut garifuna, an indigenous preparation of snapper over coconut milk, served alongside a plantain mash and cassava bread. Or grab a plate of barbecue conch tacos from a vendor on one of Belize's island beaches.
SNACK ATTACK
Salbutes are a tasty snack composed of a fried and flaky corn tortilla topped with chicken, cabbage, tomato and sauce.
