It’s true: the southern region of Belize has a reputation that precedes itself. Known for being unhurried and undisturbed, it’s understandable why people, whether for a quick trip or something a bit more permanent, seek out the districts of southern Belize for a truly refreshing change of pace. From Hopkins to Placencia, and everything in between, there’s a world of beauty, culture, history, and of course, relaxation waiting to embrace anyone who has their sights set on the Stann Creek District in particular. If you’re looking to settle down, there’s at least one Goldilocks location that’s sure to capture your attention for all the right reasons. Enter: Sittee River, the perfect combination of laidback life and accessibility.
Location, Location, Location
The Sittee River winds its way through the southeastern part of Belize, emptying out into the Caribbean Sea. In addition to being home to a world of biodiversity, it’s also home to some of the tallest mangroves in the entire region. This hidden gem sits tucked away in southern Belize: 15 minutes away from quiet Hopkins Village and just an hour and a half from Placencia.
Nearby, a world of hidden gems lay waiting to be discovered. Enjoy spectacular sunsets at the much beloved Curve Bar, situated right on the river. Head to the historic Serpon Sugar Mill for a glimpse at Belize’s past. Or, venture into Hopkins – just a short drive away – where culture and cuisine await, both in the village proper and in the neighboring resort area. In the dry season, book a tour to Anderson’s Lagoon for a one-of-a-kind experience: a bioluminescence tour is sure to impress!
