| If you are looking for a Beautiful and Magical place to Retire or Vacation that is filled with History, Fun in the Sun, Endless Adventure and Plenty of Relaxation... Look at what Belize Has To Offer!!! Inhabited from 2000 BC until the Spanish Conquest in 1500AD, the Mayan Civilization thrived for many years. They build beautiful Temples and Pyramids of which many still remain to this day. Mayans were masters of Mathematics, Astronomy and Writing and the Mayan Calendar is still the most precise calendar to date. In the 15th and 16th centuries Pirates throughout the Western Caribbean used the reef along Belize's coastline as protection against their enemies and later found that the Hardwood trees in Belize were a safer more lucrative way of making money compared to Pirating and they settled and became tree farmers. Hardwood was exported to other countries mainly to be used to make dyes for fabric but it was also used to make furniture. After the British occupied Belize, Then known as British Honduras, what was left of the Mayan Civilization returned. Today Belize is inhabited by Three distinct Mayan groups each speaking there own dialect of the Mayan language and almost all speak English and Spanish. Along with the Maya you will find immigrants from Mexico, Guatemala and Honduras mixed with a large population of European, Canadian and American Retirees. The National Language of Belize is English. The only English Speaking Country in Central or South America. Mainland Belize is covered with Beautiful Lush Rain Forests with The Majestic Mayan Mountains dividing the southern half of the country from east to west with Mt. Victoria rising to greet the Mayan Gods at 3680ft. The acidic earth in the south is home to miles upon miles of orange groves which is a major export. Breathtaking Beaches on both Mainland and the Hundreds of Islands, called Cayes and Atolls, Lying in Aquamarine and Jade-Colored bays in the Caribbean. Belize boasts the Second Largest Coral Barrier Reef in the World. It runs for 185 miles South from Cancun Mexico on the Yucatan Peninsula and continues through to offshore Guatemala. This Reef is also home to The Blue Hole.
