Belize - A peaceful and friendly country with a diverse ecosystem

Updated: Sep 11, 2023

Belize has a variety of cultural and biological sites for all interests. We got to explore Xuanantunich, Nohoch Che'en Caves Branch cave tubing, Rio Frio Cave and Rio on Pools in Mountain Pine Ridge Forest Reserve all near San Ignacio in 2022. We then switched gears for the beaches of Palencia and snorkeling at Laughing Bird Caye and a river boat tour on Monkey River. Unlock Belize!
