If you enjoy golf, then Belize has a new experience for you – a 9 hole “jungle” golf course. Golf enthusiasts will understand the following, written by BRL guest Rich after he enjoyed an afternoon on the green – “9 holes, 2 sets of T-boxes, Par 32 1933 yards + 1959 yards = 3892 yards. Five par 4’s, four par 3 holes. It is a fun 9 hole holiday course. Accuracy is required as fairways are narrow with small greens. Greens are slow, requiring firm chips and putts. There are a few blind and obstructed second shots required. Preferred lies and Astroturf tee boxes.” Pullcarts, clubs, balls and tees available. The course includes tropical birds flying overhead, a few ponds abounding with local wildlife, turtles and crocs – be careful of ball retrieval. After golfing and working up a sweat, enjoy a quick trip down the Hummingbird Highway, stopping at the inland Blue Hole, managed by the Belize Audubon. This Blue Hole is a collapsed underground limestone cave. It is fed by a river running through the original cavern system, and forms a sapphire-colored pool at the bottom of the cenote, where the cavern collapsed. The pool measures about 100 feet deep and 300 feet in diameter, with the actual blue hole at the depression’s base having a depth of about 25 feet. The inland Blue Hole offers a cool place to swim, relax and cool down before heading back to the Lodge.
