Mexican Circus comes to town. Belize might be a tropical country but these animals are not native. So when the Circus came to Belmopan, Belize they caused quite a stir.
Enjoy a boat trip from Ambergris Caye (when you book one of our Vacation Packages) to the islands near the mainland of Belize where you'll have the opportunity to see one of nature's most docile animals, the gentle manatee. After visiting these mammals, stop at one of Belize's most beautiful small islands, Goff's Caye, for lunch & snorkeling.

The most amazing flowers in our Landscaped Gardens. We try as best we can to adhere to Organic gardening techniques in our Gardens producing and abundant amount of fruit, vegetables, flowers and trees.
Andy dealing with the Local Wildlife. Living in the Jungle Can bring its own hazards. For instance this snake decided to come a bit too close to the resort as it was foraging for food. I believe it was an Indigo Snake although identifying them is sometimes quite difficult.
A highly recommended book on the Wildlife of Belize is 'The Ecotravellers Wildlife Guide Belize and Northern Guatemala'. Written by Les Beletsky it has picturs of almost every mammal, bird, fish etc that lives in Belize. A very handy guide.
We quite often get Howler Monkeys sitting in the trees just 100 yards from the Jungle Dome, making so much noise as they mark out their territories. But great to look at and the Tourists often get amaznig close ups of Wild Monkeys.
The Ancient Guanacaste Tree at the bottom of the Swimming Pool is also a safe haven for the Black Vultures, Red Lored Parrots, Mealy Parrot, Collared Aracari and Keel Billed Toucan. ALso seen often around the Jungle Lodge are Hummingbirds feasting on all the flowers, and Woodpeckers.

The Belize Zoo has to be one of the best zoos in the world. Set in totally natural surroundings cut into the Jungle (you have to forgive the cages but then who would want to get this close to a Croc without a cage!!
