Placencia Tour Guide Cooperative

Founded in 2014 by part-time fishers who have been transitioning from fishing into tourism, the Placencia Tour Guide Cooperative strives to promote the economic and cultural welfare of its members by providing the delivery of tours, charters, and other economic development in the country of Belize. We are proud to collaborate with Placencia Seaweed Farmers and Belize Women’s Seaweed Farming Association (BWSFA) to be the first to offer our signature seaweed farm tour.

Guests will embark on a half day excursion out to Little Water Cay where our knowledgeable tour guides will lead an educational and one-of-a-kind snorkeling experience around the seaweed farm.

The underwater farms are teeming with life, and snorkelers will see the juvenile fish species which call these farms home.

Today, Placencia has become famous for its influx of sustainable seaweed farming initiatives, which in turn, are creating new carbon sinks and helping to restore the region’s diverse marine life. And you don’t have to go far to find the treasured greens. Stroll along the pedestrian-only Placencia Sidewalk and you’ll find a number of restaurants serving seaweed shakes. Strike up a conversation with a local and you’ll quickly see the beverage’s ties to not just the town’s heritage, but also to its ecological and economic future.
