Why do you avoid?

Belize, I could take it or leave it. Went into town last time, nothing really there, lots of poverty. The people are really nice. The long tender is not worth it unless doing an excursion which we normally do not do.

 

 

This.

 

We took a beach excursion through Carnival because we had our 2 year old DD with us and were limited in options. It was nice. After it returned us to the ship, we grabbed a tender and went to the port area. It was pretty underwhelming. There were a bunch of stores, selling the same junk as any other port, but a lot of it more expensive than other places. I bought us some t-shirts and dh grabbed a couple of beers. DD fell asleep on the tender there and snoozed the entire time. She really did not miss much. It was okay, but not my favorite place. I would not avoid it, but would not pick an itinerary just to go there either.

Also walked around for hours outside of the walled shopping area and went FAR. Not once did we feel unsafe. Don't avoid and don't believe the hype about it being dangerous. Pay attn and don't flash stuff around and you will be fine. Rem they are people too
