ReMax VIP is thrilled to announce the listing of a beautiful sandy lot in Surfside! This waterfront lot is just over a quarter-acre, it is 11978.2 square foot Waterfront lot, with over 75 feet of frontage on the Placencia Lagoon, and about 150 feet of depth from the lagoon towards the road. The northern half of this lot is comprised of a beautiful beach with stunning fine white sand.
There is never a shortage of things to look at in this area; the lagoon is constantly animated with wildlife, birds singing, fish jumping, and frogs croaking; the picturesque sunrises over the lush Maya Mountains will give you a reason to wake up at 5:30 every day; and the sunsets offer an amazing panoramic backdrop for any dinner party.
The Placencia Lagoon is actually an inlet, with brackish water, where sea water meets nutrient rich water that has flowed down from the mountains. The lagoon is also an estuary and very important to the ecosystem as it is a feeding ground for countless birds, reptiles, and fish.
The mangroves around the lagoon act as incubators for the fish of the sea including barracuda, snapper, tarpon, and sting rays, offering a protected sanctuary for spawning.The lagoon is also the full time home of a myriad of life including many of the fish mentioned before, as well as bottlenose dolphins, manatees, many different species of tropical bird, and over 70 different species of fish.
The Placencia Lagoon is also the biggest natural harbor in the West Caribbean, making it ideal for boaters with a copious amount of space for mooring boats, fishing, and other water sports.
Surfside is sandwiched right between Maya Beach and Seine Bight, offering easy access to many great restaurants and bars, a few spas, as well as the two biggest grocery stores on the peninsula.
Just down the road from this property is Simply Vibes; a small bar with a large outdoor dining area, a small but delicious food menu with bar classics including one of the best burgers in town; patio games including darts, cornhole, and giant Jenga; as well as a variety of events each week including live music, poker nights, and trivia every Sunday.
Sirenian Bay is a large resort located on the northern end of Surfside. With a membership there, you can get discounts on mini golf as well as food and drinks from any of their 5 amazing restaurants and bar. Along with the discounts, you get unlimited access to the pool as well as their state of the art gym facilities, and no court fees for tennis or pickleball.
Surfside is also home to Goss Chocolates, an artisan chocolate company with delicious chocolates and sweets known for being made solely from locally sourced organic products including cacao, milk, and vanilla.
Just north of Surfside is the cute little coastal town of Maya Beach. Maya Beach is about 6 miles north of the larger Placencia Village. Maya Beach, like much of the Placencia Peninsula, is a place where visitors can escape the hustle and bustle of city-life, enjoy the natural beauty of the Caribbean, and experience the warmth of Belizean hospitality.
Maya Beach is known for its beautiful white-sandy beaches, stunning turquoise blue waters, and having a more relaxed and laid-back lifestyle than the lively Placencia. The community is relatively small, and home to many expats. Residents and visitors alike appreciate the slower pace, and peaceful surroundings.
Despite its small size, Maya Beach has a number of restaurants and bars that offer a variety of culinary experiences including traditional Belizean cuisine, fresh seafood, as well as many different international favorites, ensuring there’s an option for everyone to enjoy.
