Birding at the Inland Blue Hole National Park

This Tour departs at 5:30 am from San Ignacio, the drive to the National Park takes one hour.

Bird watching starts at 6:30 am until 9:00 am, after which the tour continues with a tour of St Herman’s cave. After the cave tour there is a picnic lunch at the blue hole and swimming. The Blue Hole is actually a sinkhole formed by the collapse of an underground river channel.

The cost of the tour is US$75 per person and includes lunch and entrance fees.

Belize is a birder’s paradise; both amateurs and professionals can encounter some of the world’s most exotic birds.

Western Belize has become one of Belize’s greatest bird destinations. It offers several birding sites which include National Parks, surface sites, riverine vegetation and lagoons.

Hike into the famous Blue Hole National Park with a local licensed tour guide and get a chance to spot the rare Keel-billed Toucan, Ramphastos sulfuratus and Motmot or Momotidae.

At the surface sites birding is awesome, for the plazas are open and the flora provides adequate food for many species. This allows birding even easier for the amateur birder.

Birding could never get better at the Aguacate lagoon for the scenery is spectacular and breathtaking. This is where both resident and migratory water birds can be spotted. This is also the place where the uncommon Agomi Heron can be sited.

Our guides have painstakingly made a Check list of bird sightings, recording bird species seen in Belize. We specialise in arranging tours to suit the needs of birders, contact us to discuss your particular interest.
