Archeological Sites Now Open for Business

Michael Peyrefitte

Statutory Instrument seventy-two was amended to also allow archeological sites to open in an effort to encourage domestic tourism.   This will permit Belizeans to travel across the country to undertake touristic activity while giving tour operators the opportunity to return to work. Attorney General Michael Peyrefitte says that S.O.E. regulations must be adhered to in respect of the six feet physical distancing and the wearing of face covering.

“For the archeological sites and the places we go in the sea, Hol Chan Marine Reserve, Shark Ray Alley open again and you can go to them. A spinoff of that is that now tour operators can now operate to take people n those areas. Let me repeat social distancing is mandatory and still in effect, wear your mask if you are not in the water. That remains.”
