Getting to Belize

Setting foot in Belize is a breeze! Philip Goldson International Airport (BZE) is your gateway to this tropical paradise. It's located just outside Belize City. Direct flights arrive from major hubs in North America, making your journey to Belizean adventures smooth sailing.

Once in Belize I typically recommend taking a local flight south to Placencia through Tropic Air.

If you're traveling North to San Pedro, I recommend taking a water taxis with Belize Express Water Taxi.

If traveling towards the Jungle, I recommend renting a car, or coordinating transportation service.
