Take advantage of these event-driven opportunities
along Belize’s newly-paved Coastal Highway.
Belize’s Coastal Highway is now completely paved. It has been engineered and realigned, with many new bridges added. This smooth, level road is well-marked, with safety features such as guardrails and reflective paint. It is the best road in the country. It is a strategic shortcut ~ reducing travel time from Belize City to the southern half of the country by an hour. This event also opens up a spectacular new coastal area to travel. InTheTropics has been living & working in the Coastal Road/ Gales Point/ Manatee area for decades. We know the area well. We have also been working hard to maintain the incredible biodiversity and unique culture of this area.
Here there are miles of virtually-untouched, elevated-sand, Caribbean beaches. The wild foothills of the Maya Mountains come closest to the sea; and the Caribbean breezes offer an ideal weather pattern for tourism, agriculture, and a laid-back Caribbean lifestyle.
This area’s centerpiece is the huge estuary system, known as the Southern Lagoon. This seaside lagoon is more than 9,000 acres, and its beaches and tributaries are designated as an IUCN Category IV Marine Wildlife Sanctuary, called the “Gales Point Wildlife Sanctuary“. Reef fish from the nearby MesoAmerican Barrier Reef come here to breed in its tributaries and mangrove rivers. Known for harboring the largest population of endangered West Indian Manatee anywhere, it is well known to scientists. Its beaches are called, “the most important Hawksbill Turtle nesting grounds in the Western Caribbean”. Sport fishing here is phenomenal.
The surrounding forests and the dramatic, jungled karst hills here extend for tens of thousands of hectares. They are home to a wild abundance of tropical flora and fauna, including rare and endangered species rarely encountered elsewhere. All five species of Central America’s Big Cats thrive in this harmonious environment, along with tapir, monkeys, curassow, tropical birds, and newly-discovered species of plants.
We are offering a full array of “Rare Air” properties, including large and medium-sized ocean beach properties; fishing lodges; secure safe havens; waterfront estates; citrus and fruit farms; and road-side properties suitable for your varied business ventures.
Please – let us know your needs. And do schedule a visit soon. We can pick you up at the BZE airport. From there we are a short 9-minute helicopter ride; a 56 minute drive by vehicle; or best of all, a memorable 90-minute boat journey through jungle rivers, mountain-ringed seaside lagoons, and bird sanctuaries – to our docks.
