ABOUT BELIZE

The charming country of Belize is well known as a travel destination around the world.  This is attributed to primarily the lower cost of living, our tropical climate and the official language of Belize being English.  But Belize boasts this and more...Belize is on the Caribbean coast, nestled between Mexico and Guatemala and offers an intriguing mix of tropical forests rich with wildlife, majestic 3,675 foot mountains, mysterious Maya temples, and diving and fishing experiences beyond compare. In a single day you can go from tropical forest to the longest barrier reef in the Western Hemisphere.

With the inception of the Retired Persons Incentive Program, Belize is rapidly becoming known as a retirement destination. For further country information and information regarding Health, Insurance, Customs and the like, click here.
