The southern Toledo district, often described as Belize's last frontier, is a fabulous part of the country and much less visited than the west and east.

It experiences more rain than other parts of Belize making it lush with untouched rainforests, abundant with citrus plantations, paddy fields and home to remote Mayan sites, such as Lubaantun — where the famous 'Crystal Skull' was found — and Nil Li Punit (nim-lee-poo-nit), which has 25 original standing carved monuments including the longest in Belize at some 60 feet in length.

Landscapes and wildlife

There are many large river networks and caves to discover and, being located on the coast, these provide easy access to the southern reefs of Belize. The birding is some of the best in the country with over 300 species found here. With 15 national parks and reserves throughout the area wildlife lovers will feel at home, as will adventure seekers, history buffs and snorkellers alike.

And if that isn't enough to entice you, the many traditional Maya and Garifuna villages dotted throughout the area will.

People and culture

The Toledo District is the cultural haven of Belize and your opportunity to visit local families who will proudly show off their homes and organic gardens. Many of them own small cacao plantations as this is the area that 'Green and Blacks' chocolate beans come from. They will demonstrate the chocolate making process which is harder than it looks if you get the chance to give it a go!

It is a truly wonderful region of Belize with so much to offer, yet it is still often overlooked by foreign visitors, which makes it all the more rewarding for those who are willing to make the effort.
