As an enthusiastic traveler, you may have noticed an increase in articles about the benefits of adventure tourism. This trend isn’t new. Historians trace its roots back to at least 569 AD when Alboin, King of the Lombards, chronicled his daring climb up Matajur in the Alps. There have been more, but earlier records haven’t been unearthed describing similar adventures.
What’s adventure tourism all about these days? It’s satisfying demand for more than just a getaway focused on sea, surf, and sand, expanding the experience beyond its current scope where avid travelers still enjoy sea, surf, and sand, but an eclectic mix of active fun is added to the menu that shows off a destination’s natural wonders, attractions, and the area’s people.
Adventure tourism in Belize
Because the very definition of adventure tourism, according to the Adventure Travel Trade Association, defines any getaway that includes “physical activity, cultural exchange, or activities in nature,” you will find the mother lode of activities in Belize that fall into two categories: hard and soft. The hard category includes hiking, caving, and rock climbing, while soft activities include bird watching, SCUBA diving, horseback riding, kayaking, fishing, snorkeling, and indulging in the rich melting pot of Belize’s myriad cultures.
Few destinations this close to North America offer so many options. In return for your willingness to discover what all of the excitement is about, you reap myriad benefits: improved self-confidence, feeding your curiosity, learning new skills, or improving ones you already have. Further, adventure tourism not only impacts the nation’s economy, but when you interact with English-speaking Belizeans during your vacation, you’re going to fall in love with these welcoming people.
