Is Belize Family Friendly?

Yes, Belize is very family friendly. Belizeans share a fairly conservative culture, and every destination will have something for every member of your family, no matter what age.

Younger children will be amazed by the variety of colorful plants and animals. Older children will leap at the chance to scramble up a Maya ruin, or zip-line through the rainforest canopy. Take the whole family to listen to the country's distinctively Caribbean style of music.

Belize is famous for its intense dive sites, but keep in mind that these marine reserves also provide an opportunity for swimming and snorkeling, or just taking a bike ride. But if you're interested in learning something new as a family, consider getting a professional dive master to show you the ropes at one of Belize's incredible reefs.
