What to Do in Belize City

If you’re in the mood to chill out, Belize City is perfect for kicking back. You may have heard that Belize knows how to party, but wait. There’s more. Walk the peaceful coastline and stop for a photo op at Baron Bliss Lighthouse downtown. While you’re in the city centre, browse the collections at the Museum of Belize, where you’ll find stories from centuries past. To cool off, snorkel at the Belize Barrier Reef. Venture beyond the city limits to the Belize Zoo on Western Highway, home to rescued animals native to Belize. Plenty of wildlife call the Mayan Altun Ha ruins—just 50 km northwest of Belize City—home. When night falls, stop back at your Belize City hotel for a wardrobe change before seeking out the coolest club.
