Placencia

Don’t miss Belize's Beyond Blue Dive Summit — a 4-day underwater adventure where divers explore world-class reefs, connect with conservation leaders, and help protect the future of our oceans.

Beyond Blue Dive Summit

SHIRTS, SHOES AND WORRIES ARE OPTIONAL.

Known locally as “Barefoot Perfect,” Placencia Peninsula has 16 miles of sea, sand, and picture-perfect views. After hanging out on the beach, snorkelling and scuba diving, head into town and get a feel for what a traditional Kriol (Creole) fishing village is like.

Stroll on one of the narrowest streets in Belize to shop colourful trinkets or gaze at the details of vibrant artwork depicting Belize’s marine biodiversity, culture, and lifestyle. Placencia has numerous accommodations and restaurants, creating a cosy home away from home ambience for you and your family when visiting Southeast Belize.
