Where on Earth is Belize?
Belize is located on the northern edge of Central America. Mexico’s Yucatan Peninsula is on the northern border of Belize, Guatemala is to the west and Honduras is to the south. The Caribbean Sea forms Belize’s eastern border.
Belize is an easy two hour flight from Dallas, Houston and Miami. The Belize government is currently extending one of the main runways at the airport to accommodate long-range, wide body jets from Europe and Asia. Currently visitors from Europe and Asia must land in the U.S. or Guatemala first, then transit to Belize on smaller jets. It is forecast once the Belize airport is upgraded there will be many more visitors from Europe and Asia since visitors from these countries will be able to fly direct to Belize.
