Message from Nikki Tomlin

San Ignacio is a vibrant town located in western Belize. It's known for its rich cultural heritage and diverse population. The town was originally named El Cayo by the Spanish, but over time it grew into a bustling hub for mahogany and chicle production. Today, San Ignacio is the largest settlement in Cayo District and the second largest in the country. It offers a range of attractions, including ancient Maya ruins, stunning caves, and nature reserves. Whether you're exploring the historical sites or enjoying the local cuisine, San Ignacio has something for everyone.
