Belize is truly a unique and very special place to call home. Situated on the shores of the Caribbean, Belize is the only English-speaking country in Central America. Belize is a hidden gem of dense rain forests, stunning cultural artifacts and history, world renowned birdwatching, and incredibly friendly, welcoming people all tucked behind the largest barrier reef in the Western Hemisphere, just a short two-hour flight from major US cities.

Everything is close by in this compact country which is only 170 miles long and 62 miles wide. Belmopan, the capital, is situated dead center in the middle and Belize River Home is just 5 miles from Belmopan.
