Barton Creek Cave

Barton Creek Cave, located in San Ignacio, Belize, is a unique Maya site with a rich historical background. This tall river cave was once used for sacrificial purposes and can only be explored by canoe. As you paddle through the subterranean waters, you’ll encounter a striking stalactite that hangs so low, you may need to duck to avoid it. The journey to the end of the cave, with its echoing sounds and cool, damp air, offers a memorable experience, making the trip well worth the effort.
