Wedged between Mexico and Guatemala is Belize, a Central American nation that is home to the world's second-largest barrier reef and the ancient Mayan city of Caracol.

Beyond these two attractions, you might also be interested in visiting the Mayan city of Xunantunich, an extraordinary archaeological site showing evidence of a lost civilisation, and the Actun Tunichil Muknal cave, a remarkable network of caverns that contain Mayan artefacts.

If you're seeking relaxation in Belize, it has many idyllic islands with spotless beaches that are perfect for sunbathing, swimming and snorkelling. Head further inland if you're feeling adventurous and want to spot exotic birds and wildlife native to Belize.

Belmopan, the current capital of Belize, is a relatively young city. It was established in the 1970s after a hurricane had devastated Belize City, the former capital. Today it's home to the Belizean government with its National Assembly Building resembling a Mayan temple!

Belmopan isn't your typical vacation spot, however, that doesn't mean there's nothing fun to do. The city sits near the Caves Branch River where cave tubing adventures are popular, and the Guanacaste National Park is nearby, with hiking trails available where you can spot a variety of exotic birds.

Belmopan doesn't have its own international airport, so to reach the capital you'll first need to fly into Philip Goldson International Airport in Belize City, then travel by bus or car to Belmopan - an 80-kilometre journey.

The best time to visit this administrative city is from January to May when the skies are sunny with very little chance of rain. But if you're planning a more cultural visit, book flights for September to see Independence Day celebrations, or April/May for the Agriculture and Trade Show.

• Prioritize Safety in Tourist Areas: While Belize City's Southside has high crime, popular tourist spots like the Cayes and San Ignacio are generally safe. Practice common-sense safety: avoid displaying wealth, use reputable operators for tours/taxis, and limit time in high-risk zones, especially in Belize City.
• Practice Eco-Tourism for Fragile Ecosystems: Protect Belize's delicate reef and rainforests. Use reef-safe sunscreen, stay on trails, and never touch wildlife or coral. Reduce plastic use with a reusable water bottle, conserve resources, and support sustainable tour operators and eco-lodges.
• Respect Local Culture and Customs: Belize is diverse and laid-back. While English is official, Kriol and Spanish are widely spoken; a friendly demeanor is key. Dress modestly, particularly in rural or religious areas, and remember that tipping (10-15%) is customary for good service.
• Strategize Your Transportation: Choose transport based on budget and convenience. Domestic flights are fast but costly; water taxis are cheaper for islands. On the mainland, public "chicken buses" are budget-friendly, while shuttles offer comfort. If driving, be aware of road conditions and ensure insurance.
