Southern Highway

Southern Highway

In Belize, the Southern Highway takes up where the Hummingbird Highway ends and runs from Dangriga to Punta Gorda. It is mostly paved, with the exception of a rough 10-mile segment between Golden Stream and Big Falls (2006). The Southern Highway provides important access to a number of Mayan ruins and natural areas. The ancient Mayan sites of Nim Li Punit and Lubaantun are each situated within a few miles west of the highway in southern Belize; the Cockscomb Basin Wildlife Sanctuary is several miles west of the highway in south-central Belize.
