U.S.F. Arrupe Immersion Experience Dangriga, Belize December 30, 2005 – January 15, 2006

Belize, previously known as British Honduras, is located in Central America. Belize is bordered on the North by Mexico, South and West by Guatemala, and the Caribbean Sea seals its 174 mile coastline to the East.

The area of the Belize mainland and cayes is 8,867 square miles. The country's greatest length from north to south is 174 miles and its greatest width is 68 miles.

Dangriga is the unofficial capital city of the Garifuna. They settled this location in Belize on November 19, 1832 which is now Garifuna Settlement Day. The town is located in the northern regions of the Stann Creek district on the main cut south called the Southern highway. It is also the largest township in Stann Creek and perhaps in southern Belize with a population just over 11,000 people. The town is named by the Garifuna and roughly translates to "Standing Waters"
