The Placencia Peninsula is located in the Stann Creek District in southern Belize and is accessible by land, air, and sea. This charming 15-mile-long narrow stretch of golden sand and littoral forest begins in the quiet community of Riversdale, continuing to Maya Beach, Seine Bight Village and ending at Placencia Village located at its southern most tip.

The Peninsula is less than a mile at its widest and is positioned between the placid Placencia Lagoon on the west, and the sparkling Caribbean Sea on the east.

Often referred to as the Goldilocks destination of Belize, Placencia has the perfect mix of amenities and entertainment while remaining peaceful and uncrowded.  Its location between the barrier reef and the jungle make it the ideal base camp for both marine and inland adventures.  Quaint, convenient, and unhurried- Placencia is “just right” for a vacation where you can experience the best of all Belize has to offer.
