Dangriga Belize

Belize is a country rich in culture, natural beauty and excitement. Dangriga in Southern Belize is filled with wooden houses set among coconut palms and mango trees. In addition to its tranquil Caribbean setting, the region offers easy access to some of the most exciting experiences the country has to offer.

Culture

Dangriga’s culture revolves around the Garifuna people of Belize, and you can witness their contribution in local music and punta dance styles at venues and events around the area. The local Gulisi Garifuna Museum features permanent displays that showcase the history of the Garifuna.

Nature

Along the Hummingbird Highway, you can find the (other) Blue Hole. This site is a small collection of vibrant blue water formed by a horizontal opening in the surrounding limestone. It makes a refreshing stop for those that love swimming or diving, and it is well-marked on the highway.
