Belize Adventures!

Belize practically has it all for a perfect vacation destination that caters to just about anyone. It has jungles, mountains, coastline, beaches, wildlife, rivers, barrier reefs, sun, sand, and fun. It is also the perfect place for the adventure seeker too. This is the place pirate's legends were made of and the adventure continues. Kayaking is a favorite adventure sport here and adventure tour companies like Toadal Adventures has guides to offer the ultimate in kayaking thrills. Kayaking can be thrilling but it can also be dangerous if you do not have the right experts guiding you. Toadal Adventures has paddle guides who are trained in the techniques of sea kayaking. Their guides have also been trained in natural history so that they can also give you some background in the surroundings as well as show you adventure. No matter which adventure company you choose, it is critical to have experienced guides for the safety of the entire trip. The jungle, while very beautiful, is a very hostile environment. You want guides who understand the country. Preferably, they should be natives to the country. These guides should be trained and understand areas such as jungle camping, jungle survival, and how to handle jungle emergencies. Here's some more adventures in Belize that is the maximum in thrills. Bike Hike Adventures, Inc. runs a tour called the Belize Blast which includes tubing, horseback riding, snorkeling, caving, kayaking, and biking all within 9 days. They ride horses through the jungle, float on inner tubes in the Kayaking, bike on dirt trails through tropical forests, and go snorkeling to see the wildlife of the ocean to include rays, manatees, and nurse sharks.

This tiny nation is so laid-back it's almost comatose. Dabbling its toes in the Caribbean Sea, Belize has more in common with its island neighbors than the fiery volatility of Central America - its history is thoroughly coup-free. Soak up the glorious natural wonders and rich cultural history.
Unpaved roads, high prices and a lack of infrastructure make it a difficult place to travel, but Belize compensates with brilliant diving, dramatic ruins and pristine jungle - secluded eco-lodges cater for sedentary adventurers. The English-speaking population is mainly Creole and Mestizos
