  This handbook covers the country of Belize (formerly British Honduras) which is bordered in the north by Mexico, in the west and south by Guatemala, and in the east by the Caribbean Sea. The country is part of the Yucatan Peninsula and the region is referred to as La Ruta Maya , although strong interest from UK travellers is still evident. Travel information is provided, with choices suitable for a range of budgets. Each of the nine chapters offers a variety of accommodation, from beachside camping or guesthouses to the more expensive resorts. Information for visitors going south from Belize to Guatemala and Honduras is also given. The physical features and rainforest wildlife of Belize are described in detail, historical coverage begins with Mayan civilization, and activities described are suited to a wide variety of interests, including diving, fishing, hunting, photography, music, archaeological site exploration, and shopping.
