To keep visitors and residents safe, the Belize Tourism Board has created an extensive “Tourism Gold Standard Recognition Program” as part of its phased reopening plan. This 9-point program includes new guidelines and operating protocols for the tourism industry.
A Gold Standard entity is one that has thoroughly followed the new safety procedures and has the guests’ safety as their utmost priority.
The program currently includes accommodations and tour operators. However, now also stand-alone restaurants, gift shops, tourism sites and approved transport can be certified, deeming them safe for visitors who choose Belize as their vacation destination. Therefore, we will publish lists of the additional recognized Caye Caulker businesses once certified.
