World Sustainable Travel & Hospitality Awards Gala Ceremony 2024

Belize

Nestled along the Caribbean Sea, Belize boasts the world’s second-largest barrier reef, renowned for year-round scuba diving and snorkelling. Home to turtles, rays, manatees, dolphins, and over 500 species of fish, the UNESCO-listed Belize Barrier Reef offers unparalleled underwater adventures. Don’t miss the opportunity to witness whale sharks in Placencia between April and June, especially during the full moon when cubera snappers, dog pinnae, and mutton snappers spawn - a favourite time for whale sharks for filtration feeding.

Belize warmly welcomes visitors to engage in community-based tourism, promoting activities with the Garifuna community or Maya community such as The San Antonio Women’s Collective, which aims to empower women and inspire future generations to rediscover their Maya roots and traditions.

Belize beckons with its diverse landscapes, vibrant cultures, and warm hospitality making it easy for you to grab life in Belize.
