Getting around
How to get from Belize to Placencia
Local "puddle jumper," is the most convenient way to get from the Belize International Airport to the Placencia Airport. Check out Maya Island Air or Tropic Air for tickets.
Once you're at the Placencia Airport, it is a short taxi to the Airbnb.
Pro Tip: Allow yourself at least one hour in between your arrival and departure, for Customs & Immigration.
