Ambergris Caye, Belize

Belize was once home of the highly sophisticated Mayan Civilization.

Belize is a small, enchanting country located just south of the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico, 150 miles south of Cancun. It is about the size of Massachusetts. Belize is located in Central America and the Belize offshore islands and Belize Barrier Reef are in the crystal clear Caribbean Sea.

Belize has an amazing variety of terrain including the world's second largest barrier reef, hundreds of offshore islands and atolls, mangrove coasts, rolling savannah, pine forests and tropical rain forests. Numerous caves are scattered throughout Belize. Several winding rivers flow from the rain forests into the Caribbean Sea.
