Maya civilization, cultural heritage / national heritage, historic ruins
Altun Ha is a classic period Mayan site. Easy trip from Belize City, very popular day trip from cruise ships. Most of the cruise ship crowds leave right after lunch and you can have the site almost to yourself in the late afternoon.
If there are not too many tourists around it is a pretty good birding site. Try the trail to Rock Stone Pond and the side trail from there. When the Crab Apple Trees are fruiting it won't matter how many tourist are there, the birds will swarm them.
