Travel and transport agencies Dangriga

This bus line serves Belize City, Independence and Punta Gorda. 4 daily departures for each of these cities. Take 3 hours from the Belize CIty Bus Terminal, and 2 h 45 to reach Punta Gorda in the south of the country.

Here's a local agency, 100% Belizean, that can help you discover the whole country, but especially the Garifuna area around Dangriga-Hopkins-Placencia: cultural immersion with the Garifunas, Cokscomb Wildlife Sanctuary, Bocawina, horseback riding and more. In short, everything there is to do on land in and around Stann Creek. The agency also offers an efficient car rental service from Dangriga, which is worth noting as there isn't much choice in this area in the town. The nearest agencies are in Hopkins.

Easy access on foot from your hotel or by cab. Buses run from dawn to early evening to Belmopan and Belize City, or the other way to Punta Gorga. For Hopkins, there is a direct service Monday to Saturday at 10.15 a.m. and 5.15 p.m.; Sundays only at 5.15 p.m. For Placencia, there's a Ritchi'es bus that takes the Peninsula route (so you don't have to take the ferry from Independence): departures at 11am, 2pm, 4:30pm and 6:15pm. Make sure you get all the information you need to avoid untimely changes.

Meet around 10 a.m. in front of the Island Breeze bar & grill, at the corner of the beach bordering the river, and ask about the boats to Tobacco Caye in about 45 minutes. You may have to wait a while for enough passengers to make the trip, or compensate for their absence by paying a few extra dollars. The service is professional and fairly well organized, and most of the captains are from the same family and have known each other all their lives, so you're guaranteed to help each other out if there's a problem starting up the boats.

In addition to the country's major cities (Punta Gorda, San Pedro, Caye Caulker, Placencia, Dangriga, Corozal Town), Tropic Air also offers flights to neighboring Mexico, Honduras and Guatemala. The company also offers a dozen flights and excursions to the country's major tourist attractions (Blue Hole, Lamanai, Belize Zoo...). A flight over the Blue Hole is an unforgettable experience, during which you'll discover the Holy Grail of the world's divers from the air, with a much better view than from the surface of the sea.

This local airline, with a fleet of some fifteen propeller-driven aircraft, flies to the country's main destinations and towns (Corozal, Orange Walk, San Pedro, Caye Caulker, Dangriga, Placencia, Punta Gorda and even Savannah in the extreme south of the country, from which many boats depart), and also organizes private flights for customers who want to have the plane all to themselves! Consult the timetable on the website. The company also organizes two flights over sumptuous sites (Lamanai and the Blue Hole).

This Canadian agency, based in Dangriga, is a true reference when it comes to discovering the country. Initially focused on sea kayaking expeditions (guided or unguided), it now offers the opportunity to discover the hidden face of many of the islands and atolls along the Belizean coast, as it has very comfortable campsites on some of them. Although the company's main focus is the sea, it can also organize all types of excursions (sporting, cultural, family, relaxation, etc.) in all corners of the country. Very well done and comprehensive website.
