With sixteen miles of sandy beaches, the impossibly blue Caribbean on one side, a mangrove-fringed lagoon teeming with life on the other, Placencia is indeed very special. And just offshore are myriad cayes, or small islands, dotting Belize’s barrier reef, the second largest reef in the world. Uncrowded diving, snorkeling, fishing, kayaking and island exploration trips are less than an hour away.
Lunar cycles play a vital role in fishing and nowhere in Belize as grandiosely as at Gladden Spit Marine Reserve off the coast of Placencia in southern Belize.
Laru Beya Resort and Villas are absolutely perfect for a couples getaway or family fun!!! We attended a wedding in May 7, 2011 on the beach! My husband and I can not wait to go back. The rooms are very comfortable and decorated perfectly.
For vacationers dreaming of unspoiled, sun-kissed beaches, spectacular sea views and a laid-back atmosphere where “stress” is not allowed, Placencia is THE location in southern Belize.
