Gourmet products local specialties and wines Dangriga

In Belize, it's not always easy to find a wide variety of fruit and vegetables in one place, but Eddie's is paradise in that respect. He runs a small kiosk right in the center of town, offering a vast selection of beautiful produce, often grown without pesticides. Oranges, bananas, mandarins, watermelons and a host of exotic fruits vie for top billing with zucchini and other vegetables that make you want to buy them all.

This is one of the most pleasant places to take a break in the town of Dangriga. The room is large and tastefully decorated, with a pretty wall covered with Emojis painted by local youngsters and a superb exterior wall covered in graffiti, setting the tone that the city's youth love to come here to relax. A wide choice of smoothies, ice creams and juices, as well as tasty sandwiches and pizzas, await you here. Of particular note are the fresh fruit milkshakes, which are particularly tasty and pleasant in this often sweltering city.

Here's a truly surprising place. In the heart of Dangriga's main gas station, behind a small but opaque glass door, you'll enter another world and be greeted by charming young girls offering the best ice creams and sorbets in town in a cosy, well-decorated room. Brownies, cookies, sundaes and ice creams are on the menu, as well as a very good espresso coffee, which is quite rare in the area. It's the ideal place to take a break before catching the bus, whose station is right next door.

As well as food products such as vegetables (often organic) and fish, you'll find a little bit of everything at Dangriga's central market. Clothes, shoes, handicrafts, hammocks... Some stores have been established here since the new market opened in 2014. Products from all over the district are sold here. Small stalls just outside the market allow you to eat more cheaply and sample the specialties that are so popular with the locals. This market is probably the cheapest place in the country to find souvenirs.
