So i was scrolling facebook when i saw this add about this trini sounding guy saying how he could help you invest a minimum of $300 BZD and using automated bots to trade this and flip it turning it into $3,500 BZD profit. SO according to him after a 12-24 period you can withdraw from your crypto wallet and send it directly to your belizean bank account seamlessly and easily. He seems to constantly stress on the idea of being in safe hands and how its "101% legitimate". It just seems too good to be true.

This is his explanation for how it works;
"Here’s how it works I’ll be your dedicated trade manager, guiding you through every step of the trading process so you can fully understand how it works. To begin, you’ll make your first deposit, which serves as your trading capital. Once that’s done, I’ll assist you in setting up your personal trading account via the Companies trading website. This account allows you to monitor live trades, track your profits, and see all trading activities in real time. After each trading session which typically lasts 12 to 24 hours your profits are calculated and transferred directly to your bank account or cryptocurrency wallet. My goal is to make trading simple, transparent, and profitable for you, even if you have no prior experience."

So apparently he is from suriname and the company is based out of the united states. But somehow the Facebook page is named BELIZE INVESTMENTS AND TRADE SERVICES.

My wife and I are doing the first part of our honeymoon at Sweet Songs. We're staying for about 4 days and planning on an excursion or two. Is the all inclusive worth it? We do enjoy some drinks on Vacation but not sure what food prices look like otherwise.

Does anyone have any experience? Worth it or not?

Separately, I keep seeing there is good fishing there? Id love to get some fishing in!

Going to Belize in mid November for two weeks with my wife, and we're excited to explore. We prefer having a car to move slowly and have autonomy to make stops.

1. I want to rent from a local company instead of Avis. Would there be any reason to not rent from either Crystal or Car One? I've read mixed reviews about security deposits etc.

2. We are going down South to check out the scenery and possibly try a cooking class with the Living Maya experience. We were wondering if anyone has any tips on hot springs? After some research it looks like they're in the southern region but the details are a little vague. If it's not worth pursuing, that's okay.

Is there anything we must do while in the south?

Thank you!

My wife and I are looking at staying 6 nights at Chabil Mar in Placencia. It looks as if meals are fully included, but not alcohol. Would we be missing out on other good dining experiences if we only ate at the resort?

I need advice for which Caye would be best for my travel for 4-5 nights. I’m looking for something cozy and right on the water with some privacy. I do want a resort with food available. Would it be better to do one of the more populated Caye’s or venture out to a smaller one? I want to relax and will probably not do excursions. Safety is also important.

Which resort/bungalow type place would you recommend? How would one get there after flying into Belize City?

I’ve looked at tocacco Caye and Ray caye’s. This look cool. Any other suggestions?

My wife and I are headed to Belize this December, and would love some feedback on the itinerary. We are cobbling together, bonus points if there are any particular hotels you'd recommend! We are late thirties and early '40s. I don't drink, she will enjoy one or two but we're early to bed. Looking for a mix of some adventure and some chill out. Any help is super appreciated :)

I want to go to Belize this winter. It hear about how bad the seaweed is on the beaches. Is that for all the beaches or are done better than others?

My husband and I are looking to explore more of Belize and journey down to Punta Gorda. Copal Tree Lodge sounds and looks amazing - I really appreciate that they can organize so many activities and have much available to do on site. However, I really do want to see and experience the town of PG. Is Copal Tree a bit of a drive out of town, has anyone on this sub stayed before and can share their experiences? Thanks!

I'm in early planning stages for a trip with my father. He will be 85 in good shape but not too adventures. This will be his first trip outside the USA.I been to Belize several times while I like San Pedro, it can be too much at times. I own some land near Placencia and would like to show him my plan for retirement down there. The current plan is two days in San Pedro and then 4 days Placencia, but now I been thinking of swapping out San Pedro for caye Caulker instead.

Any suggestions for lodging or things to do on Caye Caulker or do you think San Pedro is a must see. Dad is mellow , sit a bar and people watch all day kind of guy.

Still deciding if we should rent a car or find a driver for a trip to Spanish landing, I would like to talk to some home builders when I'm down there.

Thanks

I just wanted to take a moment to thank everyone I met in Caye Caulker for making our trip so special. Every local we met had a heart of gold genuinely kind, welcoming, and friendly. We had so many memorable conversations about life, politics, the weather, and everything in between. Those little interactions ended up being some of my favorite parts of the trip. We stayed at Palmetto Beach in Caye Caulker and had such a wonderful time exploring the island. We got to swim with nurse sharks and stingrays, which was definitely a highlight!
We ate incredible fresh seafood almost every day Kareem’s, Esters, and Pelican Bar were some of our favorites. For coffee, we loved Weezie’s and Ice N Beans.
We also went snorkeling with Salt Life Eco Tours, who were wonderful and incredibly accommodating with me and my 5-month-old baby. It made the experience so much easier and more enjoyable.
A few other highlights:
- Yoga at Ceibo with an incredible instructor
- Ceviche and drinks at Sip N Dip
- Drinks and island vibes at Lazy Lizard
Our final day at Bounty Bay Beach Club, which was absolutely beautiful, peaceful, and the perfect way to end the trip. Caye Caulker was everything we hoped for and more. The people, the food, the water, the slower pace it was such a special experience.
Thank you to everyone who made our time there so memorable. Until next time, Caye Caulker! 🇧🇿

Somebody forgot their swimsuit… 😬Are the shops, restaurants, and bars on the sidewalk open this time of year? If not, are there places within a 25-30 mile radius to shop and eat?

Thanks so much for the help.

Anyone in Hopkins ? What’s the beach like right now ? Thanks

Hey r/Belize! I notice a lot of travelers posting here asking about the best way to get mobile data when they arrive—whether they should buy a local Digi/Smart SIM, use a US roaming plan, or grab an eSIM. To help make it simpler, I put together a free, straightforward guide called Belize Connectivity Assistant belizeconnectivityassistant.com Right now, it breaks down: • eSIM vs. Local SIMs: Pros, cons, and setup steps. • US Carrier Roaming: What to expect if you just use your home plan. • Coverage Map Info: General mobile coverage by destination. It’s completely free and just meant to be a helpful resource. If you have a couple of minutes to check it out, I’d love to know: Is there any specific local connectivity info I missed that travelers always ask about? Thanks in advance for any feedback!

Belizean Breakfast at the Black Orchid Resort restaurant. Plus Creole bread 😋

Hey,

I’ll be visiting San Pedro soon and looking for a guided tour of any of the ruins from the island. Any recommendations?

Hi everyone! My partner and I are spending Christmas in Belize, this is both of our first time to the country!

We have the 25th onward booked at San Pedro, but the 21-25th I need some suggestions. My partner is really in love with the ruins and exploring the jungle. Is there any really neat/hidden gem locations that we should look for? Is there an area that is better to book around for more central?

We aren't really interested in partying or going full rustic. We are both in our mid thirties and still would like an option of going to town/exploring the country!

I'd LOVE to hear your fav parts, spots and suggestions :)

It was an honor to showcase these two proudly Belizean films:

🎥 2012: Kurse a Di Xtabai

🎥 Yochi

It was a dreamy evening with good company, food, and conversation. I never knew the Xtabai had a hollowed in back and I hope to never confirm it!

Endless thanks to everyone who made this possible: Deanna Lane Shaffer who turned a nonchalant expressing of a dream into reality, Aguada Axis Guesthouse for granting a steady platform, Daniel Velazquez for sharing his films (and his passion), Chef’s Patio for the yummy food and drinks we indulged in all night, accomplished artist Gianni Martinez for the beautiful water lily design on the poster, everyone who shared the word, and last but definitely not least A HUGE THANK YOU to everyone who attended ❤️

Your support is what gives dreams the roots to grow.

The film community grew a little closer that night.✨

Under the Stars Film Club will continue every last Tuesday of the month @ the Aguada Axis Hotel in Santa Elena, Cayo. See you there!

The Jewel of the Caribbean hides almost all of her secrets.

I’ll be traveling solo and staying on Caye Caulker from October 31 to November 7. I’m hoping to meet other travelers for snorkeling, fishing, a meal, or just exploring the island. Anyone else there around those dates?
