The rivers are home to manatees, crocodiles and trophy-size fish. Riverbanks are alive with wildlife. Thundering calls of howler monkeys warn intruders. Trees dance with colors of parrots and toucans. Giant tapirs water at the river's edge.
Elusive jaguars mark the soft ground with huge paw prints.
The inland is ecotourism at its best. It's a kaleidoscope of natural wonders, all living in harmony. With all its charm and innocence, excitement and diversity, Belize is becoming a preferred destination for travelers seeking something new, something good. The people of Belize are well aware of what they have, and they're happy to share, but they're careful to preserve. And this is good, because it keeps Earth as Earth should be.
