Carmelita is a rapidly-expanding village in the Orange Walk District of the nation of Belize.
Carmelita has the country's only toll booth at the New River bridge on the Northern Highway where the village begins.
Beside the bridge lies an access point for boat tours to the Maya historic site, Lamanai.
Carmelita was the inland village featured in the documentary Gringo: The Dangerous Life of John McAfee where John McAfee built multiple properties including a police station (which has since been converted into a house).
