Review:
Belize is best known around the world as the home of the Belize Barrier Reef, part of the world's second-largest barrier reef system after Australia's Great Barrier Reef. The getaway destination is a top choice for visitors looking for swimming, snorkeling, and scuba diving experiences, whether on their own or as part of guided tours for divers of all experience levels offered by many area tourist companies. Girls' groups can stay in luxury at world-class hotels in districts like the country's Placencia Peninsula, many of which offer full-service spas, rooftop bars and lounges, and gorgeous infinity pools. Tour excursion companies are available to explore the nation's interior rainforest areas, which are home to stunning preserved Mayan ruins at areas like Altun Ha, Lamanai, and Caraol. Nightlife opportunities abound at Caye Caulker, while some of the world's best beaches are found on Ambergris Caye.
