Why You Should be a Digital Nomad in Belize

Swap out cheesy beach virtual backgrounds or uninspiring cubicles, and embrace real-time travel and fun while working! Experience the tranquility of rushing waves on the beach or the gentle rustling leaves at a rainforest lodge while living the digital nomad lifestyle in Belize. It amplifies the need for an excellent work-life balance! If you desire the flexibility and freedom to explore and work, Belize is the best choice!

Adventures to Gain New Hobbies

Conquer a fear or scratch an item off your bucket list in this small country with big adventures! Climb to higher heights with a hike to Antelope Falls. The journey may require a few sunrise exercise sessions, but the exhilarating feeling at the top of the mountain is worth it! Or learn to dive in Belize and explore the underwater wonders of Glover’s Reef Atoll. Prepared to be awed by the stunning surreal view of corals and marine life, such as spotted Eagle Rays, Queen Angelfish, Nurse Sharks, and Lobsters. For a thrilling experience, zipline into the Maya Underworld and witness the dazzling crystalized rocks in Tiger Cave. Admire Maya pottery in-between stops of zipping through the picturesque forest. Not really up for daring adventures; how about painting on the beach or a traditional Maya pottery class after work as a digital nomad?

Culture & Community

Renowned as a melting pot of cultures, anywhere in Belize is a cultural immersion. Learn the local lingo as you sip coffee while on your laptop in a café or while typing away in a hammock on a veranda listening to passersby. Start your morning with a plate of Orange Walk tacos or fluffy fry jacks with beans and stew chicken before getting into the work groove. After a tiring day of seeing documents and non-stop calls, unwind at happy hour to the tune of a live Punta band or performers playing local favorites to get your adrenaline pumping on the dancefloor. You might even make a few friends to join you for festivities like the Lobster Fest or the Belize International Music and Food Festival. Being a digital nomad in Belize will expose you to many cultural practices and friendly people, giving you stories for a lifetime. 

Foodie Haven

If you’re the type who is always in the mood for a snack break or loves to try new intricate cuisines, Belize is just the place for you! Explore various restaurants or hop on a food tour for lunch or dinner and sample the best menu options. Indulge some mini donuts on the beach or snack on fresh fruits from a street cart as an afternoon refresher to keep the creative juices flowing. Have fun on a weekend food tour, where you can learn to make traditional Maya Chocolate, tour a Garifuna Cassava Farm, or cruise the waters of Southern Belize and cook your catch for lunch on a pristine island. You’ll learn new cooking techniques to whip up something delicious for dinner.
