A Pleasant Point

Among the most popular destinations to visit in Belize is Placencia. It is arguably home of the best coastal beach in the country and known for it’s laid back village vibe. The village is so quaint and unique, it has been featured in many travel publications. Most recently, it boasts a colorful article in Conde Nast’s 2019 Gold List issue. Writer, Horatio Clare calls the famous peninsula a low key attraction to “beachcombing” wanderers. Indeed, the 16 miles of brown sugar beach makes you feel like you walked on the set of a Sofia Coppola film. However, the best thing about Placencia is the people. Like the rest of the country, the locals are of different ethnic backgrounds. An interesting mix of born and raised Belizeans and tourists turned residents makes the characters you’ll meet all the more memorable.
