31.42 Acres Seafront Property in Belize District

Beachfront properties in Belize are becoming increasingly rare and in high demand, resulting in soaring prices. While the location undoubtedly plays a pivotal role, those willing to step outside conventional norms and invest in more affordable options will find an excellent deal, unleashing their adventurous spirit.

Situated approximately 7 miles south of the Belize City Cruise Ship Terminal at Fort Street and just 2 miles south by boat from Old Belize Marina/Kukumba Beach, this 31.42-acre property boasts a strategic location. A new Cruise Ship Terminal is currently under construction at State Bank, an island situated about 8.5 miles northeast from this beachfront property (more information available at Stake Bank Groundbreaking). Moreover, the Port of Magical Belize is also competing for a stake in the Cruise Ship Docking facility just south of this property, details of which can be found at portofmagicalbelize.com.

This prime beachfront real estate features an expansive frontage of over 1,700 feet of golden beach. The land is elevated, with a high berm on the sea side, undulating with low and high spots toward the back, where it gradually descends due to proximity to the lagoon. Despite lacking lagoon frontage, the property is adorned with Palmetto trees, coconut palms, and diverse wildlife, including Deer tracks and wildcats.

Access to the property is solely by boat, with no road connectivity. The only feasible access is by boat, unless the Port of Magical Belize constructs a road to the west, as per their current plan. The property is a brief 10 to 15-minute boat ride from Old Belize Marina/Kukumba Beach. The Sibun River, located a couple of hundred feet south of the property, offers excellent fishing grounds. Interconnecting waterways through channels, lagoons, and rivers provide access to Belize City by boat (approximately 30 minutes), or southern routes to Northern Lagoon, Southern Lagoon, and Manatee River for bird and crocodile watching. The Great Barrier Reef, approximately 16 miles away, offers opportunities for island exploration, deep-sea fishing, and diving.

Although the Sibun River and a small creek known as Sibun Creek to the north affect the water coloration (appearing grey due to silt), a sandbar in front of the property is exposed during low tide. Building a pier extending at least 100 feet from the property is necessary to access water deeper than 3 feet. This unique beachfront property holds potential for private residential development, especially given its proximity to Old Belize Marina, making it appealing to boat enthusiasts. Additionally, a day tourism operation targeting cruise ship visitors could thrive in this location.

Being self-sustainable is imperative, as there is no electricity nearby. Embracing “GREEN” practices, such as using solar power, is ideal. Water can be collected in cisterns from home roofs and filtered/purified, as the rainwater quality is excellent for drinking. While an artesian well may not be viable due to brackish water, a reverse osmosis or desalination system could be employed. Environmentally friendly prefabricated septic systems, transported to the property, along with a soak-away system, can address sewage disposal. Organic garbage can be used for compost, non-biodegradable waste can be taken to Belize City, and less harmful waste can be incinerated.
