Belize City, Belize

I didn't like that a boat had to pull up to the ship because there was no place for the ship to port up too . We didn't do any excursions just hit the souvenir shops and bar.

We loved this port the most it was so beautiful. We did the dolphin encounter it was fun kinda pricey that didn't offer lunch or anything and after you take your picture with the dolphins and pay they tell you that you have to upload to somewhere to developers them kinda a RIP off. The port was so nice would love to go there again a nbn d everyone we talked too was so nice.
