Cockscomb Basin Wildlife & Jaguar Preserve

Home of the only Jaguar preserve on the planet, the Cockscomb Basin Wildlife Sanctuary & Jaguar Preserve is home to Victoria Peak. At a height of 3,675 feet, Victoria Peak is the highest mountain in Belize. Your day will be filled with exploring the network of hiking trails, wildlife viewing and exceptional bird watching. Several trails lead you to jaw–dropping waterfall displays, where you can swim in the falls or float in the pools below the cool spring shower of the falling waters. River tubing is an optional feature of the Cockscomb experience.

Monkey River Howler Tour

You will never forget a trip to Monkey River. Your trip begins dockside from Chabil Mar Villas, where your guide picks you up by boat, for your adventure. Prepare to weave your way through the mangroves, where it's not uncommon to see a peaceful manatee lumbering by. Continuing down the coastline you will reach the mouth of the river at the Village of Monkey River. From there you will travel upstream through the Belizean rainforest. Along the way you may witness exotic bird life, crocodiles and howler monkeys feeding in the shoreline trees of the tropical jungle paradise. You will then take a jungle hike and see amazing plant and animal life as you search for troops of exotic howler monkeys. Back at Monkey River Town, you'll enjoy a traditional Belizean lunch and a walkabout in the idyllic Belizean village. Then it's back onboard your skiff for the return trip back up the coast and through the mangroves to Chabil Mar Villas Resort.

Horseback Riding in Belize

Visitors are often surprised to see that there are so many horses in this jungle setting. Horses traditionally have been used in Belize for land–based transportation. A horse hauling poles from the jungle, tilling fields, or pulling a Mennonite wagon to market, are still common sights. Belizean horses are relatively small, however they are hardy and surefooted in the rocks and mud of the hillsides.

Birding in Belize - Single and half day tours or 7 Night "Treasures of the Sky" Birding Package

Belize is an ideal setting for bird watchers. The tropical forests, savannahs, numerous cayes, wetlands, and coastal plains of Belize offer a myriad of habitat to many birds. Nearly half of our nation's land and adjacent waters are protected under forest reserves, marine reserves, wildlife sanctuaries, national parks and other protected area designation. Despite the small size of Belize, it has the lowest population density in Central America. With English as the official language, many visitors from abroad converse easily with local guides.
