Barton Creek Cave
You’ll be awed by the height and beauty of Barton Creek Cave as your guide (required by law) navigates the canoe for a leisurely visit. Life jackets and headlamps are provided. Stalagmites and stalagtites abound as you float past impressive calcite crystalline formations. A wealth of Mayan cultural artifacts was found on the ten ledges above this subterranean river.
Much was removed before government protection was instituted. Contemplate the numerous ceremonies conducted in this cave. The spirit remains.

Happy Hour in the Butterfly House
Lovers of butterflies and unique experiences should reserve a place for Happy hour in the Butterfly House an hour before sunset. You will be served a beer, Belizean rum drink, or soft drink, while you marvel at this natural phenomenon.*
“Every evening in the fading light, the butterflies perform their dance, establishing their places in the butterfly hierarchy in shifting clouds and scatters, wreaths and ropes, twisting through the forest architecture. Like the butterflies themselves, it is powerful and ephemeral – a display of delicate strength for some 45 minutes only, then done for another day.”
Jan Meermann, Green Hills Butterfly Farm |
