COROZAL Northern Belize: Covering the two districts of Orange Walk and Corozal, the north is a Belizean bonanza of natural wealth and archaeological wonder. Spectacular ancient cities, highlighted by the temples at Lamanai, evidence the ancient Maya's affinity for the area. With jungles, rainforests, coastal lagoons, and rivers, the region is home to an amazing array of animal and plant life that includes the jaguar and the manatee. Culturally the north is primarily mayan and Spanish with the Mennonite farmers adding their old world flavor to the mix.
Northern Belize Info Northern Belize is a sleeper. Like a mineral geode, seemingly plain and unassuming on the outside, once cracked, its beauty and charm will dazzle your eyes and sense of adventure.
Welcome to Consejo, Belize 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.
