The Cayo District, located in the western interior of Belize, is a 1500 square mile area that encompasses a large portion of the Maya Mountains and has ancient Maya sites to visit and explore, such as Caracol, Xunantunich, and Cahal Pech. The capital city of Belize, Belmopan, lies to the east, and to the far west lies San Ignacio, the main tourist town of the district. Cayo is home to forests teeming with wildlife and immaculately beautiful tropical watersheds with a variety of jungle and river lodges. The Belize Cayes (pronounced "keys," meaning islands) are renowned for their beaches and proximity to the coral reef. From here you can indulge any water adventure: sport fishing, scuba diving, snorkeling and manatee watching are among the most popular. San Pedro, the hub of Ambergris Caye, offers a variety of accommodations, restaurants, bars, and nightlife. For a change of pace and scenery, the bay side of the caye is a great place to get acquainted with Belizean bird life.
