What to do and see in San Ignacio, Cayo: The Best Free Things to do

August 31, 2021 Mollie Coke

It’s true: parts of Belize are getting touristy. But San Ignacio remains rustic, making it a great base for budget-friendly tropical adventure travel. Canoe on the Macal River, or walk to Mayan ruins at Cahal Pec (just be warned: it's uphill).

We commissioned Walter to paint a depiction of Hopkins Inn. We gave Walter some ideas of what we wanted included and let his creativity fill in the blanks. Walter visited Hopkins Inn to experience the place and people, developed a sketch on the canvas, and then produced a detailed piece of art he titled “Nice Vibes.” We love it!

Belize Soul Project

Reviewed By S0larC0wb0y - New Braunfels, United States

Enjoyed the evening at soul project with my wife and friends. Downstairs bar services local beer and the owner served up his very own homemade wine. The venue itself is clean and adorned by art on every wall and corner. A local duo sang cover songs but not too cheesy one's.

San Ignacio Market

Reviewed By CONatureGirl

We were on a group trip and stopped here for the big Saturday market - you have to experience this!!! The piles and rows of fruits and vegetables and spices were just mind-blowing!! Add the other booths with vendors selling all kinds of art, clothing, etc. and it is like a large flea market. Food and ice cream available, and if you want snacks for your trip through Belize, you must stop here. We got some cool art, snacks for the road, and just had a great time browsing all the local produce!
