Is Belize Safe to Visit? (Updated 2025)

"When I spend the day on the beaches of Placencia Peninsula, I never leave my belongings unattended while swimming or walking along the sand, because locals and tourists alike can easily swipe valuables; I try to find friends at my hostel so we can take turns watching each other’s things while we relax." - Matthew Kepnes
