Local services link the main towns. Maya Island Air and Tropic Air fly three times daily from the municipal airstrip at Belize City to Ambergris Caye. There are also scheduled flights daily to each of the main towns, and charter rates are offered to all local airstrips, of which there are 25.
Several companies have charters from Belize City to the outlying districts.
The sugar industry runs motorboat links along the coast. There is a scheduled boat service from Belize City to Ambergris Caye and Caye Caulker. Small boats irregularly ply between the small Cayes off the coast. This transport used to be the only means of travel to the interior, along the Belize, Hondo and New rivers, but services have dwindled since the advent of all-weather roads. Belize has a less developed network of roads than the rest of Central America but it is steadily being improved, especially in the north, as is the Belize stretch of the road to Mexico, while the Belize-Belmopan road is in generally good condition.
