Ambergris Caye
Ambergris Caye is the largest of the 200-plus cayes (islands) off the Belize coast, not far from Belize City. San Pedro is the only town. Very close to the Barrier Reef, the island has beautiful beaches and great snorkeling.
Caye Caulker
Caye Caulker is the second largest island and is primarily a fishing community. The local saying is “go slow” and its a perfect destination for tourists wanting a beach vacation and night life on a budget.
Stann Creek - SOUTHern COAST
Known as the “coast with the most,” the southeast coast of Belize offers the best in local culture, cuisine, and beautiful beaches. Stann Creek District encompasses the southeast coast, including the towns of Dangriga, Hopkins, and Placencia, all of which have recently gained popularity as the country’s top vacation destinations
OFFSHORE ISLANDS
More than 400 cayes (islands) dot the Caribbean Sea off the coast of Belize, most much smaller than Ambergris or Caye Caulker. These islands offer breathtaking calm turquoise water and the tranquility you can only get from being that far from civilization.
Toledo district - SOUTHERN BELIZE
The Toledo District is a true rain forest, full of wildlife and brimming with adventure, all while boarding the Caribbean Sea. Tourists typically visit the village of Punta Gorda. This southernmost region of Belize has emerged as a popular ecotourism and cultural destination.
cayo district - WESTERN BELIZE
Western Belize is a world class eco-tourism destination that refuses to sell out with over two-thirds of the district home to national parks and forest reserves. San Igancio is a thriving little town full with locals and tourists. Visitors choose this area for its authenticity, culture, and adventure.
Orange walk - NORTHERN BELIZE
Easygoing villages known for farms and orange groves, not beach bars or restaurants. Northern Belize borders Mexico and is made up of Orange Walk and Corozal Districts. Almost always sunny, it rains less here than anywhere in Belize.
BELIZE CITY
Belize City is where most travelers enter the country. Belize City is the central transportation hub of Belize, including the international airport, cruise dock, and ground transportation. If you do decide to spend some of your stay here, it is recommended to stay in popular tourist areas and take the same safety precautions as in any major city.
Guatemala
On the western border of Belize, you’ll find the picturesque town of Flores Guatemala offering you the chance to enjoy stunning landscapes and cultural activities, plus, it is the gateway to most of the archaeological Mayan parks around the area.
