The one-thousand-year-old reef is home to hundreds of species of coral and fish, and is a hot spot for divers, snorkellers and biologists from all over the world.
Mayan Mysteries
With only a small percentage of ancient Maya temples uncovered in Belize, whether exploring for an afternoon, a day or a week, the ancient Maya sites are well worth it. Form Caracol and Cerros to Lamanai and little villages and forest areas, pretty much anywhere you go, you’ll find ancient Maya temples. Get your hat and whip ready, Belizean-a-Jones.
Ancient Caves
There are thousands of caves in Belize and in most you’ll find extensive stalactite and stalagmite formations and pottery shards. Others have ancient intact pottery (Che Chem Ha) and human remains (sometimes intact skeletons, like in Actun Tunichil Muknal Cave) and other natural formations such as underground waterfalls.
