Should I get a hotel in Belize City?

Belize City Safety

Belize City, on the mainland, hosts Belize's international airport. While it is the gateway to the offshore scuba diving islands and/or the inland jungle touring, Belize City itself is not recommended as a tourist area. In fact, safety in Belize City is a concern because of its problem with petty crime, and tourists are advised to be very careful when walking the streets there. In most cases, visitors to Belize need see only the international airport, and there is no reason to include overnights in Belize City as part of your Belize travel plans.
