Every day of the week, adventurers set out to explore the stunning natural beauty of tropical Placencia. Whether kayaking past manatees in the lagoon, snorkeling in the clear waters at the nearby Barrier Reef, hiking around Mayan ruins, or simply kicking back in a hammock at sunset, any outdoor enthusiast will be well-entertained on this narrow peninsula surrounded by the Caribbean Sea. Add in fresh fish cooked in the Creole style and clusters of quaint, colorful beach houses, and you've got all the makings for the ideal warm weather getaway.
