Explore the southern beach villages and towns, following the coast from Belize City, to discover the towns of Dangriga, Hopkins and Placencia in elegant coastal retreats exploring bays and local beaches.
This coastline is filled with tiny offshore cayes, lazy rivers, shrimp farms, rows of citrus trees and the towns of Dangriga and Hopkins, eventually leading to the sleepy little town of Placencia at the end of a slim peninsula.
Stay along this peninsula or in the small fishing town of Placencia, a perfect spot for diving, fishing, snorkelling, sailing, swimming, cruising and kayaking, as well as many inland trips that are not accessible from the coral caye islands, such as Cockscomb Jaguar Reserve, Monkey River cruises, and remote Mayan Sites such as Lubaantun and Nim Li Punit. Discover more about the unique local Garifuna culture in Dangriga.
