Belize City is poised for a significant transformation along its waterfront, with a proposed floating boardwalk taking center stage. Tourism officials emphasize that this development aligns perfectly with their long-term vision to enhance the city’s appeal, particularly as cruise tourism continues to surge. Nicole Usher-Solano, CEO of the Ministry of Tourism, highlighted the importance of upgrading the city’s infrastructure to accommodate the growing number of visitors. ‘We must ensure Belize City is prepared for its guests,’ she stated, noting that improvements should extend beyond the Southern Foreshore to areas like Yarborough and the port vicinity. While the Belize Tourism Board (BTB) is no longer directly involved in the boardwalk discussions, it remains supportive of such initiatives, recognizing their potential to elevate Belize’s status as a premier tourist destination. Evan Tillett, Director of Tourism, echoed this sentiment, emphasizing that the project aligns with the National Sustainable Tourism Master Plan, which aims to bolster the city’s tourism sector. The floating boardwalk is seen as a positive step toward achieving this goal, offering new experiences for visitors and enhancing the city’s waterfront appeal.
