Belize - Fauna Travel

Belize

Belize is a Central American country with a Caribbean vibe. It’s also one of the best international destinations reachable on a 2.5-hour flight from Houston or Miami. English is the official language, though many Belizeans also speak a creole patois or Maya dialect. The azure coastal waters of Belize are home to the largest barrier reef in the northern hemisphere. The Great Blue Hole, pictured here, is one of its most famous dive spots. The sea is also dotted with around 400 small islands called Cayes–Ambergris Caye is the largest and most developed among them. Inland you will find dense jungles filled with Maya ruins and jaguars. It’s the perfect place to pair land and sea itineraries in the great outdoors.
