Belize, enjoying the Caribbean

Many cruises include a visit to Belize, but many do not know how many benefits this small nation has to offer its visitors. As it turns out, many, because in the pre-Columbian era it was one of the foci of development of the Mayan culture, so that like the Riviera Maya in Mexico, Belize allows that great combination of Caribbean splendor with a strong dose of culture and history.

Who are the Garífunas?

The translation of the word "Garifuna" is something like "people who eat cassava" and is used to designate a Caribbean ethnic group whose origins date back to the African slaves brought to the Caribbean during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. They also have their own language, the "Garifuna", although this language is only spoken by one third of the almost one million people who make up this ethnic group, as well as by most Hondurans of color. It is very curious that the Garifuna language is different according to the sex of each one, men use a more closed vocabulary and women use words from Arahuaco. Such is the richness and uniqueness of this culture that its language, traditional dances and music of the Garífunas were declared as Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity of Unesco.

Mayan ruins that you cannot miss in Belize

However in Belize we can lift a stone and almost certainly we will meet some Mayan ruin. And it is estimated that there are more than 900 important archaeological remains of this important ancient civilization.

The Mayan ruins of Lamanai, in Belize

More than 40% of the island of Belize is a protected area and with that it is the country that has the most kilometers protected as reserves within its borders. The natural attractions of this small American nation are wonderful and many, as we find beaches with transparent waters we see inland lush forests with great wildlife.

The Barrier Reef of Belize, World Heritage

One of the biggest tourist attractions in Belize, tourist and natural to tell the truth, is the Barrier Reef, a set of coral reefs that are located at a variable distance from the coast, in some places just 40 meters and in others about 300 meters.

In addition, you can also observe the traces of the Mayan culture that left constructions that are worth visiting if you are visiting the area. We tell you the most important thing about Belize: tourism, unmissable places and corners that you cannot miss.

Ambergris Island, a place without hurry in Belize

Belize is a small country in Central America whose Caribbean coasts are worth knowing if we are lovers of good beaches and Mayan culture since here, as in Guatemala, this tribe built impressive temples. But well, if it's beaches, we have the most famous island beaches in the whole country, Ambergris Caye or Ambergris Island.

Chiquibul National Park

The Chiquibul National Park covers an area of 106,838 ha in the territory of Belize and constitutes a natural continuation of the Chiquibul-Mayan Mountains of the Biosphere Reserve, of Petén Guatemala.

Featured

Maya Mountains

The Mountainous Maya region attracts lovers of outdoor adventures. Recognizing the value of healthy ecosystems, the Belize government has allocated much of this region as protected areas. As a result, the environment remains very healthy and unspoiled, with abundant wildlife and native vegetation. The Mountainous Maya region of Belize extends west of the Hummingbird Highway and the area that borders the Western Highway.

Caye Caulker, a beautiful little island in Belize

On the Caribbean coast of Belize there is a coral island called Caye Caulker. It is a small and narrow island whose town is called the same, a name that either comes from the practice of masking the veins of wooden boats to make them airtight (something many carpenters do here), or the name with which it was baptized by the Spaniards, Cayo Hicaco.

Belize encourages tourism with free travel after the pandemic.

The Central American destination has begun a campaign to grant a trip for two people once the restrictions on the Coronavirus have been lifted.
