Pacific Ridge School takes a trip to Belize. The students stayed outside San Ignacio, Belize at Pooks Hill Jungle Lodge. They spent time cave tubing, hiking in Cockcomb Wildlife Sanctuary, exploring ancient Maya ruins, and volunteering at a local children's home.

Belize is an extraordinarily beautiful and peaceful country, only the size of Massachusetts or Wales with a population of just 294,000. As a result, its wildlife and environment have been able to both survive and thrive, combining tropical rainforest with a superb coral reef which shadows its entire coastline. We can highly recommend Belize to you all. We will return there, no doubt about that!

Our trip journal covers 10 amazing days in Belize! Perfect weather, Mayan culture and a bit of adventure. On our Belize tour we went scuba diving, snorkeling and hiking through the jungle.

My Belize tour included a bit of everything. Beaches, rain, bugs, Maya ruins, snorkeling and cocktails. I could get use to this...

This spring my husband and I set off to explore Belize on our custom "Adventure's in Paradise" Tour. We began by relaxing on the beach in Ambergris. Then we were on to a luxurious stay at Hamanasi Dive Resort to swim with the sea creatures that abound. Finally we ended our Belize tour at Pooks Hill Jungle Lodge with excursions to the ATM Cave and the magical Mayan ruins that surround the area. All around it was a relaxing and beautiful trip to Belize with Adventure Life.

A wonderful time in Belize discovering the Blue Hole, Glovers Reef and South Reef as well as the jungle of the Jaguar Preserve and Mayflower Park. Tikal in Guatemala is the cherry on the sunday.

Our trip to tropical paradise - adventures in the thick jungles of Belize, exploration of the ancient cities of Guatemala, and lazy days in the sun at the Caribbean. Perfect!
