AmbergrisCaye.com Home Forums Belize by District Stann Creek Placencia

You can: take tour of Monkey River, go on a snorkel trip, or scuba, or day-sail. You can go on a tour of Cockscomb Basin, cave tubing, Mayan ruins. Lots of the bars have nightly games and activities: horseshoe competition, karoake, chicken drop etc.

Placencia is a peninsula about 14 miles long..maybe longer.
Placencia village is at the southern tip of the peninsula.

Catdance62 listed some great tours and adventures We have done many of them and some more than once.

Great place and totally different than Ambergris Caye.
The real Belize is mainland. Belizeans vacation on Ambergris Caye at holiday time

Use your eyes, you will see so much more on the mainland. Bring a book for down time. Enjoy!

thanks a lot for all the info. yea we went to the mainland for a few days last time and loved it...can't wait to check out placencia

I would definetly recomend booking in advance. I just started thinking about our trip and was surprised to see Ranguana was almost booked for the month of Feb. Try and make it for two or three nights just to get a nice feel for the Village. Food is mostly average but the people are above. Sunday afternoon//evening is a great time at Barefoot Beach Bar. Enjoy your stay and feel free to PM for more info- Duane
