You can drink tap water in Belize City and San Ignacio so if either of these happens to be your destination, it’s still wise to check with hotel or resort staff just to make sure. They will provide your drinking water throughout your stay so count on it. Projects like the one launched by Stutzman Services in the U.S. are bringing water technology and expertise to Belize that is designed to improve the condition of drinking water. This is especially important to folks in the Santa Familia area as their rudimentary water treatment system was destroyed by a flood. This ongoing project will further improve water in the area once the new 7,000-gallon holding tank is finally completed.
