Welcome to Belize
Today’s electronic era makes traveling easier than ever. Travelers looking for the ultimate in exotic getaways have easy access to information. These same adventure seeking travelers usually think exotic means far away. Well that’s not always the case. In actuality Belize is right under your nose. There’s no need to look at the other side of the globe. Just look a little south, less than two hours from the southern border of the US. You will find it tucked away between Mexico and Guatemala on the Caribbean Coast of Central America. It’s truly one of Mother Nature’s best kept secret.
Small in size but vast in diversity, this tiny, English-speaking country is a shining example of nonstop adventure and environmental excellence. It is the essence of nature, above and below the watermark. In a world where rainforest and reefs are disappearing daily, it’s refreshing to visit a country where more than one-fifth of its land mass is dedicated to nature reserves. Like a land based on Noah’s Ark. These reserves are a refuge for the endless variety of wildlife. Some of this pristine land has never felt a human footstep, at least not for a thousand years or so. The same pristine environment may be found along the amazing offshore reefs and outer cayes. As the interior like a giant outdoor zoo, Belize’s underwater world emerges as a Technicolor aquarium. The proximity of reef and rainforest is what makes Belize so unique.
