Solo Travel Tips· Solo Friendly

Hopkins is a small Garifuna village on the coast — the cultural experience here is unlike anywhere else in Belize, with drumming traditions and Garifuna cuisine that solo travelers can explore authentically. Scuba diving at the nearby atolls (Glover's Reef, Turneffe) is world-class. Very quiet and relaxed; better for solo travelers who want peace than those seeking social hostels.

A long, quiet Caribbean beach running the length of Hopkins, a Garífuna village with a laid-back, barefoot feel. The water is calm, and local operators run snorkelling and fishing trips out to the barrier reef cayes. Evenings bring Garífuna drumming, and the Cockscomb Basin Wildlife Sanctuary is nearby.
