With its pristine coastline and incredible wildlife, Belize truly deserves a prime spot on your travel list for 2023.
Despite being a tiny country in central America, bordering Mexico and Guatemala, with a population of about 400,000 - Belize has so much to offer, particularly for those who are interested in snorkeling and diving. It has the Western Hemisphere's longest continuous barrier reef, approximately 185 miles of coral formations. Funnily enough, the reef celebrated its 1000th birthday in June 2022.
While visiting this extraordinary country in October, I feel more certain than ever that I need to get my diving license.
