Getting to Belize

BY AIR:

All international commercial airlines land at the Philip S. W. Goldson International Airport (PGIA) in Ladyville, 10 miles north of Belize City. Private aircraft must be cleared through the Belize Airport Authority and Civil Aviation Department at the PGIA.

BY LAND:

There are two main border points: Santa Elena at the northern border with Mexico and Benque Viejo del Carmen at the western border with Guatemala. All-weather highways connect Mexican cities with the border city of Chetumal, from which there are regularly scheduled buses to Belize City. ADO buses operate between Cancun and Belize. Regular bus services operate between Tikal (Flores) in Guatemala and Belize City.

BY SEA:

Cruise ship passengers will be advised of procedures on board–usually they disembark in Belize City and take their tours from there. Private vessels may clear Customs and Immigration in Belize City and San Pedro Town in the Central Coast; Big Creek and Dangriga on the Southeast Coast; and Punta Gorda in Southern Belize.

TRAVELING WITHIN BELIZE

 

DETAILS

BY ROAD

Belize has a well-planned highway and all-weather road system that connects all mainland towns, villages and attractions. Visitors can rent a vehicle at the airport or major tourist centers, they can join an organized tour, charter a taxi, or take a bus. Buses travel between the towns several times daily–you can stop along the highway at villages and visitor attractions.

BY AIR

Small airports on the islands and in most of the major towns allow for fast travel with one of our two national airlines, or by charter. Small aircraft offer a bird’s-eye-view over unexplored parts of the country, leaving passengers wishing flights were longer!

BY SEA

Both the Belize Marine Terminal and Fort Street Tourism Zone Water Taxi Terminal provide hourly water taxi
services to the popular island destinations of Caye Caulker and Ambergris Caye. Water taxis are also available between Caye Caulker and San Pedro, and from San Pedro to Corozal Town and Chetumal in Mexico. Licensed tour operators offer tours and transfers from many parts of the country to the offshore islands and outer atolls.
