The Best Sight in The Southern Coast, Belize

You can watch young Garifuna boys hone their drumming skills at Lebeha Drummers. Lebeha means "the end" in the Garifuna language, a reference to the school's location at the north end of the village. The drums are of mahogany or mayflower wood, with deerskin on the drumhead. Other instruments include shakas, or shakers, calabash gourds filled with fruit seeds and turtle shells. The drumming goes on nightly, though most activity is on weekends. Donations are accepted. You can take drumming lessons and purchase a CD of Lebeha's works.
