Belize is fantastic, it is like nowhere else on earth and there is no place to which you can compare it. It is not on the way from anywhere to anywhere else. It has no strategic value. In a world where overcrowding is a major quality of life issue, Belize's low population density is one of its biggest asset. In Belize things are laid back-way back. It is a fabulous place to just relax. No one is in a hurry to do anything-ever.

#13 Consejo Beach Trail
Consejo Village is the northern most settlement in Belize. Nestled on the shore of Chetumal Bay, Consejo is 7 miles north of Corozal Town and 2 miles south across the bay from Chetumal, Mexico (pop. 290,000). There are no Malls, movie theaters, fast food places, large hotels or the other trappings of developed resorts in Consejo. Most of those things are, however, available close by in Chetumal, just a 9 mile drive or a quick boat ride away.
Consejo is a very quiet, peaceful and beautiful place. Belizeans, retirees and tourists enjoy its serenity. There are several small expatriate communities near Consejo Village, including Consejo Shores, Wagner's Landing (home of Smuggler's Den) and Mayan Seaside.
Consejo Shores is a mostly expatriate community and home to about 200 North American and Europeans and a few Belizeans who enjoy it's sunny weather and relaxing atmosphere. Developer Bill Wildman said recently that more homes have been built at Consejo Shores in the past 2 years then the previous 2 decades. Wagner's Landing and Mayan Seaside have also seen a recent building boom.
Here is a preview of the information available on Consejo.Bz:
