Hourly buses from Belize City and Corozal pull up on the main
road in the centre of town, officially Queen Victoria Avenue but
always referred to as the Belize-Corozal road. Services to and from
Sarteneja stop at Zeta's Store on Main St, two blocks to the east,
while local buses to the surrounding villages leave from near the
crossroads by the fire station in the centre of town.
The Belize-Corozal road is lined with hotels, restaurants and
filling stations, so there's no need to walk far. If you do have
to stay, then the best option is St Christopher's Hotel,
10 Main St (phone & fax 322-1064), which has beautiful rooms
(some a/c) with private bath, set in grounds sweeping down to the
New river. The best place to change money and get cash
advances on credit cards is the Scotia Bank, just east of the plaza.
The post office is at the north end of town on the Belize-Corozal
road.

The majority of restaurants in Orange Walk are Chinese,
though there are a few Belizean-style places serving simple
"Mexican" food or rice and beans. Lover's Restaurant, tucked
away in the far corner of the park at 20 Lover's Lane, offers the
best Belizean food, while Juanita’s, on the side street by
the Shell station, has the best Mexican food. |
