About Belize: Supplemental Index of Belize Articles

Belize is the only English speaking nation immediately south of Mexico with which it shares a land border - the next country on the Americas mainland that is English-speaking is Guyana in South America.

Belize is a located in northeastern Central America, bounded north and northwest by Mexico, on the east by the Caribbean Sea and in the south and west by Guatemala. Belize, known until 1973 under the title of British Honduras, gained its independence in 1981, from the mother country Great Britain. Belize is a member of the British Commonwealth with Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II as Head of State. Its land area extends over 22,965 square kilometres of 8,886 square miles. Belmopan is the capital but the old capital, Belize City, remains the largest city and commercial center.

The following is a supplemental index of Belize articles. Pages will open in a new window.

Belize North is run by Rick Zaniser. Rick is a U.S. national who retired in Belize and then decided it was not for him. The website has a flavour that reflects some negative opinions but generally is a good read to get a different perspective on Belize. Definitely not TravelBelze.org government fluff! His All About Belize Page has some interesting information. Rick is now happily relocated back in his native U.S.A.

Corozal.com is operated by a husband and wife team Jan and Judy Wilson from the U.S.A. happily working and living in Belize. The site is focused on Belize's northernmost district - Corozal. The website is small but the Corozal Attractions page has some useful information.

Ambergris Caye is one of the best known tourist attractions in Belize. One of the more independent websites is run by born Belizean and San Pedro Ambergris Caye native Dorian Nunez. Ambergris Today has up to date information on the island. We like the Ambergris Today Photo Gallery.

Belize's Placencia Peninsula is booming. On the verge of overtaking Ambergris Caye as the top tourism destination in Belize, its development is spurred by its access by road and the many surrounding areas such as Hopkins and Seine Bight. The Placencia Breeze is a published by tourism interests thus caveat emptor. Related page on Belize.com is at Placencia Belize.

Southern Belize is relatively undiscovered - but not for long. Belize's deep south has some of the most spectacular attractions and an excellent highway. Tide Belize is a non-government eco organisation that is also involved in commercial tourism tours. Good read.
