At the south end of the peninsula is the
picturesque village of Placencia, the unofficial capital of the area and the best place to enjoy a meal, do some shopping, or get
fishing and diving equipment for a trip out to the
nearby Belize Barrier Reef.
Some places of interest include local
nearby fishing village Arguineguin, the
picturesque Puerto de Mogan, the city of Las Palmas — full of culture, shops and a beach or two.
