Here are the top 7 things to do in this beautiful country (this is just the start of unlimited possibilities)

1. Snorkel the Belize Barrier Reef

A UNESCO World Heritage site, the Belize Barrier Reef is the second largest coral reef system in the world, following Australia's Great Barrier Reef. It's a veritable underwater paradise where you can snorkel or dive among vibrant corals and diverse marine life, including colorful fish, sea turtles, and rays. Popular spots such as Hol Chan Marine Reserve and Shark Ray Alley are must-visit destinations for snorkelers and divers of all skill levels.

2. Explore Ancient Ruins

For history aficionados, Belize is a treasure trove of ancient Mayan ruins. Sites like Caracol, Xunantunich, and Lamanai provide a glimpse into the grandeur of the ancient Maya civilization. Visitors can explore towering pyramids, intricate stone carvings, and ceremonial plazas, all set amidst the lush jungle backdrop. Local guides offer insightful tours that unravel the stories of these remarkable sites.

3. Discover the Great Blue Hole

Part of the Belize Barrier Reef Reserve System, the Great Blue Hole is a world-famous diving site and a geological wonder. This massive underwater sinkhole attracts divers from all over the globe, who come to experience its dramatic depths and spectacular marine life. Adventurers will delight in exploring the stalactites and vibrant corals that await deep below the surface.

4. Experience the Belize Zoo

Located just outside the capital city of Belmopan, the Belize Zoo is a unique conservation sanctuary that provides a home for native animals like jaguars, tapirs, and toucans. Unlike traditional zoos, the Belize Zoo is set in a natural environment where visitors can observe animals in their native habitat. Guided tours offer educational insights into wildlife conservation efforts in Belize.

5. Take a Jungle Adventure

The lush jungles of Belize are a playground for adrenaline junkies. Adventurous travelers can embark on activities such as zip-lining through the canopy, cave tubing along gentle rivers, while hiking through the Belizean rainforest to discover hidden waterfalls.

6. San Pedro Slam

Explore Ambergris Caye with sun and relaxation. Tour San Pedro on your golf cart, and take in all of vibrant colors of this culture. Stop for lunch and to find some locally crafted artisan goods. With pristine beaches, charming beach bars, and hospitable locals, this larger island is ideal for a unique, re-immersion into a faster paced city experience.

7. Of course... We saved the best for last - Just relax!
