Which Belize Destination Fits You Best?

Planning a Belize getaway but can’t decide between Ambergris Caye and Placencia? You’re not alone — they’re Belize’s two most popular coastal spots.

Here at Ocean Breeze Beach Resort, we often meet travelers who’ve visited both. Almost every time, they tell us the same thing:

 

“We wish we’d spent more time in Placencia.”

Let’s show you why Placencia truly captures the best of Belize.

Why Placencia is the Better Belize Experience

    Placencia offers miles of soft, golden sand and calm waters — no docks or crowded piers.
