Curator’s statement
In between Mexico’s Riviera Maya and Guatemala, Belize is privy to an oasis of natural wonders, white-sand beaches and turquoise water making it one of the most romantic places in the world. It is as ideal of a honeymoon destination as it is for solo adventuring as you hop across its islands. Known for its incredible biodiversity, this is also an excellent destination for adventure-seekers and lovers of the marine underworld so highly present here just offshore in the MesoAmerican reef.

Things to do in Placencia, Belize
You don’t have to try hard to get the most out of your vacation when in Belize. First, get on the water: paddleboard in the lagoon across from Turtle Inn, take a sunset cruise with a bottle of wine and go for a snorkel adventure to Silk Caye. There are plenty of ways to enjoy the island's aquatic offerings.
Ready to explore the land? Snag beach cruisers, paddle into town and enjoy beachfront bars and small shops. And when it is finally time to relax, book massages and body scrub treatments to unwind either in the Balinese-inspired spa or in the comfort of your own private villa.
For those who want to add some adventure to their romantic stay, hike the Cockscomb Wildlife Sanctuary and have the Turtle Inn team pack you a picnic with a bottle of wine.
A note from Morgan
For full romance, add a day (or three!) at Coral Caye – a completely private island full of opportunities to unwind, relax and reconnect.
