Culture

From the moment you arrive in Belize (formerly British Honduras) – whether you are an adventure traveler, part of a family trip or in the country for a relaxing beach vacation – Belize people and culture make you feel welcome and comfortable.

This enduring promise to the land, the waters and you, the visitor, inspires all to achieve a genuine and intimate connection to a variety of extraordinary experiences.

Expatriates in Belize from Canada, Europe and the United States make up approximately 10% of the 370,000 plus population.
