Belize City

Belize City is the largest city in the Central American country of Belize and was once the capital of the former British Honduras.

Take a stroll around town and check out the cultural and historical centers as well as the colonial architecture. There’s also eclectic shopping and dining. Plus, just outside of town, there are mysterious archaeological tours and jungle river adventures in the rainforest.

As a busy port city, Belize City is the commercial center of the country. The largest hotels are found here, with conference facilities and professional services, as well as restaurants, bars, nightlife, Belize’s only cruise passenger terminal, the Museum of Belize and numerous historical sites. Quick connections—either by short flight or water taxi—to offshore islands make for great day tours of snorkeling, diving and relaxing.
