Belize is one of my favorite countries for travel in Central America — it’s small enough that you can easily see the best of Belize in one week, perfect for a short getaway! In other Central American countries like Guatemala and Mexico, you’ll need at least two weeks at a bare minimum — and still just…

For a tiny country, Belize punches well above its weight. Its Caribbean coastline is home to the second-largest coral reef in the world (after the Great Barrier Reef). Meanwhile, its lush inland is filled with dense jungle full of caves, swimming holes, and rivers. Also, Belize is a true melting pot, reflecting in the language,…
Given the mega-popularity of my post on all the amazing things there are to do in Belize, I get countless requests from people to help them plan their Belize vacation.
