Marine Parade Waterfront

The main waterfront promenade through the Fort George neighbourhood

The Marine Parade is the seafront boulevard that runs along the northern edge of Belize City through the Fort George neighbourhood. It's a pleasant place for a morning or evening walk, with the sea on one side and colonial-era buildings on the other. Street vendors sell fresh coconut water and snacks; pelicans work the water alongside fishermen's boats.

This stretch of the city feels safer and more visitor-friendly than most. The water taxi terminals are here, so you'll likely start or end a trip to the cayes at this waterfront. The Radisson Fort George Hotel sits on the promenade and has a rooftop bar that gives good views over the harbour and out toward the reef.
