Why do people move to Belize?
When we asked people why foreigners move to Belize, they responded...
"One of the main reasons we chose to relocate to Belize was the pristine reef, as we are avid snorkeling/diving enthusiasts," mentioned another expat when asked about moving to Belize.
"The Cayes - Ambergris Caye is one of the top tourist destinations in the country. It has some of the best scuba and snorkeling in the world with the barrier reef just offshore. Excellent restaurants and a vibrant Ex-Pat community, along with welcoming residents add to it's charm. The sister Caye of Caye Caulker offers many of the same benefits but in a much more laid back way. There they embrace their motto of "slow down"," commented one expat who made the move to Belize.
