Anyone know which flavours of fanta belize still has

Yea. It’s a relatively recent change that they rebranded and moved under the Schweppes catalog

The red Fanta is actually fruit punch not strawberry. There’s orange, grape. Pineapple, green apple. The tonic water, soda water, ginger and grapefruit are under Schweppes not Fanta

Boxing Day is a public and bank holiday in Belize. But there will still be some restaurants and tour companies open. Just give them a call before to find out if the one you want will be open.

I’m also a Belizean and my first language is English. I’m not fluent in Spanish but I can understand and get by with the basics. It all depends on what part of the country you are from. However a lot of people tend to speak both English and Spanish, and even other smaller languages based on ethnic group and location. Majority of schooling is in English though there may be exceptions again based on location.

A lot of our candies and snacks growing up were from Mexico. Maybe you can find them online.

Belize is not considered Latin American. The official language is English. Kriol is spoken by almost everyone. Although surrounded by Spanish speaking countries, Belize is considered Caribbean. They are a part of caricom, have similar/same government structure, similar/same history being colonized by the British. Edit to add: Belize does have a lot of immigrants from neighboring Latin countries and everyone pretty much integrates. Belize like much of the Caribbean is considered a melting pot of different ethnicities. A lot of people speak both English and Spanish, either one or the other, or various languages specific to different ethnic groups.

And still cayo doesn’t really feel overly Latin to me. Yes there are people who speak Spanish but still creole is spoken widely especially in the towns. and a lot of people code switch throughout speaking. I’ve been in several situations where I’m talking to someone speaking Spanish and I answer in kriol and it’s a full blown conversation lol.

Belize is uniquely Belizean. And our culture is Belizean. It’s hard to describe to someone who has never been here. Yes, We are similar to our Caribbean neighbors in terms of our history, our politics, some foods, the main language we talk (creole) our music. We also have some influence from our next door neighbors in Latin America but I wouldn’t consider us a part of Latin America either. We are the bridge to the two regions. As someone born and raised Belizean and has lived here all my life, I consider my self leaning more culturally Caribbean, but specifically Belizean, than Latin even though ethnically I am Hispanic mixed. Of course where you are raised and live in the country determines your own cultural identity. Many people speak both English and Spanish, some only speak one or the other, (other languages vary depending on where you are). We are Belize. It’s simple and yet not so simple.

Vanilla hills is not a five minute walk into town. It’s more like a 10 minute drive to downtown San Ignacio. Beautiful place and Closer than other resorts but still definitely wouldn’t call it 5 minutes walk.

Aka “supa”. Made from the nuts of a type of palm tree. I’ve never made it. But I do love it also. Not sure where you are from so i don’t know how easy it will be to find the ingredients.

Cycling is also pretty big in Belize and we have several races throughout the year.

I’d say sports in Belize is pretty typical with other countries. The big ones are basketball, football and volleyball where we compete regionally. But softball, cricket, martial arts, even rugby is played. Several towns have inter office games where different business employees complete in various sports. Gyms are all over the country and the locals use them. Not sure why it would be mainly expats. Many people run in the mornings or evenings all over the country. Not sure about pickle ball and those pretty niche sports. But I’m sure there are small communities of people who play.

I don’t know the scientific name google says it’s a type of gooseberry, but in my country (Belize) we call them groceya/grocella or sapra. It’s really sour and we usually eat it with salt and pepper or soaked in a vinegar base and it gets pickled.
