If your ideal summer includes adrenaline, nature, and unforgettable memories, then Belize is calling your name. This small but adventure-packed country offers some of the best ways to connect with the outdoors—and there’s no better time than summer to dive in. With sunny skies, warm river water, and lush green landscapes, the season is perfect for high-energy experiences that get your heart racing and your spirit soaring.
At Untame Belize, we specialize in creating the kinds of summer adventures that go beyond the brochure. From flying through the treetops to floating deep into ancient caves, here are some of the top Belize adventures to try this summer.
Zip-Lining Through the Jungle Canopy
Soar above the trees and feel the rush of wind as you zip-line through some of Belize’s most beautiful jungle terrain. Whether you’re a first-timer or a zip-line enthusiast, this activity is a must. Locations like Mayflower Bocawina National Park and Nohoch Che’en offer zip-lining experiences that combine speed with stunning views. You’ll glide over waterfalls, rainforest trails, and lush green canopies that are alive with birds and howler monkeys. It’s the perfect mix of nature and adrenaline—and the cooler morning temperatures of summer make it even more enjoyable.
River Tubing Through Ancient Cave Systems
Belize takes river tubing to the next level with cave tubing, an adventure that combines relaxation with exploration. After a short jungle hike, you’ll float on an inner tube through winding river caves used by the ancient Maya for ceremonial purposes. The Nohoch Che’en Caves Branch system is one of the most popular spots for this experience, offering cool, clear water and dramatic limestone formations illuminated by your headlamp. It’s peaceful, mysterious, and unforgettable.
For a more laid-back tubing experience, you can also opt for open river tubing on the Macal or Mopan River. Drift beneath jungle trees, splash in calm waters, and let the natural current carry you through one of Belize’s most tranquil environments.
Waterfall Hikes and Jungle Treks
Summer is when Belize’s waterfalls are at their fullest—and most photogenic. Lace up your hiking shoes and head to spots like Big Rock Falls in the Mountain Pine Ridge or Tiger Fern Trail in the Cockscomb Basin Wildlife Sanctuary. These hikes are moderately challenging and incredibly rewarding, often ending at cool pools where you can take a refreshing dip.
The trails themselves are part of the adventure. Keep your eyes peeled for tropical birds, iguanas, and even the occasional jaguar print. Whether you’re hiking through pine forest or tropical jungle, the beauty of Belize’s landscapes in the summer is something you have to experience firsthand.
Mix and Match for the Ultimate Day
The best part about summer adventures in Belize is that you don’t have to choose just one. With a well-planned tour from Untame Belize, you can combine zip-lining, cave tubing, hiking, and cultural experiences all in a single day. Want to stop for tamales at a roadside stand or add a visit to a Maya ruin along the way? We’ve got you covered.
