What's the best way to get around in Placencia, Belize?
Frik De Meyere
One of the best ways to get around in the village of Placencia is to walk, because it is not a very big area. Otherwise, you can get around on a golf cart, although it is not necessary. 90% of the people in Belize do not even have a driver’s license. If you walk in the village once in the morning and once in the night you probably have seen everyone in the village. If you want to go somewhere far, or to the mainland, a car works great.

If you are going to Belize City or Belmopan from Placencia, there are different travel options for you.

Or you will find someone who does tours and has a big van and you can share the trip with them. If you are just going around Placencia Village, you need nothing...

If you need to get out of the village there are so many ways to travel such as getting a taxi, sharing a trip with someone by announcing your trip on Facebook, you could rent a car, take a bicycle, or you may take a golf cart. A taxi ride to Maya Beach from Placencia costs US $25. It may be expensive for the distance but you might go there just once a month.
