Belize, unique and unusual, is an exciting destination for the traveler seeking to experience different cultures and exotic environments. An English-speaking, democratic nation, Belize is blessed with an amazing variety of bio-geographic regions, including the longest barrier reef in the Western Hemisphere, hundreds of tiny cayes (as the Belizeans call their islands, pronounced 'keys'), miles of unexplored beaches, and world class diving, snorkeling, and fishing.

Stretching 165 miles from the Yucatan Peninsula to the Bay of Honduras, the Belize Barrier Reef is renowned as one of the most pristine in the world. A fantastic diversity of habitat is found here, including hundreds of islands, extensive shallow water flats, mangrove ranges, and innumerable coral reefs.

Belize is much more than a water sports destination - in a matter of a few hours you can travel from the coral reefs to the largest remaining tracts of undisturbed rainforests in all of Central America. Wildlife abounds; the rainforests are home to jaguar and Baird's tapir, tayra, agouti, and howler monkey. The bird life is world famous; this is a land where it is still possible to see the legendary harpy eagle in the wild and where colourful tropical birds like toucans, trogons and orependolas are seen daily.

If this is not enough, Belize was also at one time the heart of the Mayan civilization. With a cultural vista that stretches back over forty centuries to the beginning of the Maya, we can trace this civilization with over 600 archaeological sites in Belize alone.

Since the decline of the Mayan empire, beginning around 900 AD, and the later arrival of Europeans, Belize has continued to evolve with Spanish explorers, Garifuna settlement, Scottish buccaneers, and a hundred years as a colony of Great Britain, alll contributing to the cultural mosaic we find in Belize today.

Today, the main languages of Belize are English, Creole and Spanish and unlike many other countries in Central America, Belize has a relatively modernized infrastructure with safe food and clean drinking water. Looking towards the future, Belizeans recognize the incomparable value of their abundant wildlife, rainforests and coral reefs and in the last decade have moved to protect over 36% of the country with marine reserves, parks and wildlife sanctuaries.
