Like most of the Yucatan Peninsula, Belize was part of the Mayan Kingdom from 300 B.C. to A.D. 900. Close by Belize’s Inland, ruins of the vast Mayan civilization protrude from the depths of the rain forests. Spanish conquistadors arrived in the 16th century but were lured away by the immense quantities of gold found in Mexico making room for the British. Though Belize gained its’ independence in 1981, English is still the official language, and elements of British culture are intermingled with those of the Caribbean.
Just off Belize’s 280 kilometer Caribbean coastline is the second-largest barrier reef in the world, along with a network of over 200 coral cays and atolls. Tropical fish of every imaginable hue populate the placid, aquamarine waters off the coast. Gentle Nurse Sharks average four to six feet in length, and dive masters often feed them small fish. Rays, which have a ‘wing-span’ of two to four feet, swim directly towards the divers, inviting them to reach out and stroke their wings. Tourists will delight at the manatee, grouper, snapper and all of the marine wildlife. A truly unforgettable adventure, most of the creatures in this area have a great tolerance for divers and seem to enjoy the human interaction.
Highlights for visitors are the excavated remains of the ancient cities Altun Ha and Lamanai, which attest to the wealth and sophistication of the Mayans’ glorious past. In the interior of the country, near the Guatemalan border, the Cayo region encompasses nature sanctuaries, the majestic Hidden Valley Falls, the lively town of San Ignacio, and a host of splendid Mayan ruins. There are travelers who claim to have experienced nirvana from the summit of the main pyramid of Xunantunich, which also commands a sweeping vista of the Mopan Valley and Guatemala.
