According to famed diver Jacques Cousteau, the Great Blue Hole of Belize is one of the most spectacular dive sites on earth. The crystal-clear sapphire waters are home to colorful tropical fish and several species of reef sharks – ideal for brave divers who love to get up close and personal with sea life. On dry ground, diverse rainforests, mangrove swamps, and Mayan ruins are perfect for exploration. The beaches of Belize are sunny and tranquil spots for a day of relaxation.

IXCACAO, “Queen of Cacao, goddess of fertility and happiness!”, For our guests, we offer hands-on chocolate making sessions, tours of the cacao farm and our production facilities. We can share with you the ancient Maya traditions of chocolate, in relation to our religion, economy, and environment. We will show you the secrets of Maya chocolate making and it's historical significance in our culture and its expansion around the world. Our guests can sample our products - including chocolate bars, cacao powder, butter, hot chocolate, and cacao wine - and visit our gift shop to purchase chocolate and other local artisan gifts. A visit to IXCACAO is educational, fun, and tasty. A must-see in Belize!
Pack as lightly as you dare, wear long pants and long sleeves, open your mind to appreciation of distant cultures and get to San Felipe for Juan Cho and his Ixcacao Chocolate. If you're in hospitality this is an incredible experience beyond expectations. If you call yourself a pastry chef or a chocolatier this is a top of the list goal you owe to your profession. Juan is a proud Mayan, a historian, a gifted speaker, author of research papers, a farmer, an exporter, and a first class chocolatier. He is a rock star of chocolate.

Nestled in the heart of downtown San Pedro Town, our walk-in humidor stocks an ever-changing selection of the finest hand-made cigars from Cuba, Central America, and the Caribbean. We also have a full-service bar with the finest spirits, beer, and wine and coffee.
When you are tired of all the mixed fruity rum and tequila drinks and want a nice neat whisky this is your spot. Carlos is the real deal. This is a very chill place, with a great cigar selection, good top shelf whisky, whiskey, tequila and rum. If you are a snowflake you might get your feelings hurt in here. There are real people talking about real stuff (e.g. politics, economics and life) but we also heard conversations about whether it was Brad or Angelina or Jennifer that was the problem. So, bottom line is come here for the smoke and drink. And, the longer you stay the more characters you will meet which makes your experience all the more rich.

And gents, if you're on a shopping mission but not sure what to get, we're here to help you out with that! All visitors from all walks of life are welcome here!
Treasure Box is a MUST while in Placencia! I met Kaj through a friend and received a few items through her via Facebook and Insta before actually visiting her store in Belize. I reached out to her before my husband and I arrived in Placencia and when we arrived at Treasure Box, Kaj's employee Valentina greeted us with a smile (she also has THE BEST LAUGH EVER) Treasure Box has various items to choose from...rings, bracelets, necklaces, earrings, toe rings and plenty of other items, all of which are very inexpensive, and such great quality. Did I tell you that ALL items are handmade by Kaj? Who wouldn't want to take home a piece made by a Belizean local? I can tell you that I purchased MANY items, not only did I purchase many items, but I also took a trip to her other store in San Ignacio and bought two more pairs of earrings. My favorite item that I have that she made, is my personalized necklace, if you want one of these, you must order in advance so that you can pick up from her store when you arrive. You must also visit her other business "Cool Coconuts" at the end of the pier. They will chop open a fresh coconut right in front of you and you can either have a shot of coconut rum added, or just drink it as is. DELISH! Do NOT leave Placencia without visiting both of these businesses, you will not walk away disappointed! xoxo

We visited San Pedro and this wonderful shop 3 years ago and I couldn’t get their Body Whip out of my mind. Found nothing that comes close so I finally ordered 4! Shipping was fast, packing was great, and a small surprise gift was adorable. I can’t believe I waited this long to order, but I’ll be back, Lara!
