Dangringa is a funky Garifuna town in Stann Creek, Belize. It looks a bit rough around the edges, but is home to some of the friendliest people you're likely to meet. If you are exploring Belize in any depth you're likely to come through here at least once en route to the south or to the southern cayes. Spend a night if you have the time.
Excellent small but well presented hotel 5 minutes walk from the centre. Economic (Double BZ$36, Sep 2010) and standard rooms (approx BZ$100) available and a rooftop terrace for relaxing.
Nice clean, Quiet local hotel, within walking distance of downtown and the market. Restaurant on side, but in low season only on request. Owner Phil is very friendly, as is the other crew. Very welcoming setting. Wifi available, no computers.
By car
The Hummingbird Highway is the main route to Dangriga from Belmopan. The Hummingbird Highway is the only highway that cuts through the Belizean mountains and it is known for its scenic beauty.
By boat
Boats depart from the main dock across from the River Front Cafe to just about anywhere you're willing to pay to go, or with frequent service to Tobacco Caye, etc.
Central Dangriga is small and walkable, but you may want to grab a taxi (BZ$10) if you're headed to or from the airport or the north end of town.
