NORTHERN BORDER
(Mexico & Belize)

The Belize–Mexico border is an international border between the countries of Belize and Mexico. It is approximately a hundred and fifty-five miles long, following the course of the Hondo River. This border separates Belize from the Mexican states of Quintana Roo and Campeche. Currently, there are two official crossings at the border, which are international bridges. The main bridge is located between Subteniente Lopez, Quintana Roo, Mexico, and Santa Elena, Corozal District, Belize.

Entering Belize From Mexico

Picture
Picture
If you’re traveling down the Yucatan peninsula there’s a good chance you are going to want to enter Belize.
When entering Belize, you will need to go through immigration and then onto customs.  Unlike on the Mexican side, you need to cross in a vehicle and not on foot.  Keep an eye out for cab drivers (green license plate) right after crossing the Hondo River.  You can expect to pay about 500 pesos (approx. $25. USD) for a taxi who will drive you to the immigration checkpoint (drop you off), and then wait for you to pass through customs.  The taxi can then take you into the town of Corozal, to either catch a bus, a boat ferry or a commuter aircraft flight to Ambergris Caye.
