When my husband and I were searching for a place to celebrate our first wedding anniversary, we had a few requirements: a relaxing time, good food, and beautiful weather. We looked into places like, Turks and Caicos Islands, Aruba, and Mexico. After doing more research, those places just seemed too commercial for what we wanted to do, so when we came across Belize, we knew that this was the place for us. Belize is a country on the eastern coast of Central America, but they align culturally with the Caribbean instead of the Spanish-speaking countries of their neighbors (Guatemala, Honduras, Mexico).
