The caves of Belize
The west of Belize is particularly unique for its spectacular cave systems, filled with stalactites.
Some, such as Actun Tunichil Muknal cave, are full of Mayan artefacts and sacrificial remains involving an exhilarating adventure of swimming and clambering.
Others, such as Barton Creek cave, can be viewed in a more relaxed way by river tube or canoe, while some can be reached simply by walking across slippery rocks.
