  • The Belize Tourism Board, in partnership with the Florida Cruise and Caribbean Association (FCCA), spread holiday magic in Belize City through the Annual Holiday Gift Project! Once again, the children were thrilled to be part of this joyous celebration, brimming with laughter, excitement, and festive cheer. This year’s festivities took place at the picturesque House of Culture, where Santa Claus and his merry crew made a grand entrance straight from the Sun Princess cruise ship! They came bearing Christmas gifts, snacks, and a big dose of holiday entertainment. A total of 75 children joined in the fun, with music pumping from a DJ and plenty of giggles thanks to Ozzie the Clown. An event like this doesn’t happen without incredible teamwork. Huge thanks to our steadfast partner, the FCCA, for bringing this holiday tradition back to Belize. We also extend our gratitude to Premier Charters & Tours, Exotic Shore Excursions, Princess Cruises, Diamonds International and Chukka Belize Ltd. for their invaluable support in making the magic happen.
