Phenomenal Belize: The Ultimate Getaway

The days of a little sun and a little outdoors are behind us. This week we return to the soggy and watery existence of our famed British weather. Some reality check, eh?

But as we all know and understand, the skies will clear again, and sometime soon, we will have better days. But while we're stuck inside, let me take you to a virtual trip. Here's something to look forward to:

I'm thinking: white sand beaches, crystal blue waters and a luxury private villa to safely social distance from everyone.

Imagine a tropical paradise with endless comfort and indulgence. Five-star amenities, round-the-clock staff, and unlimited pampering surround you every single day.

These are the phenomenal getaway experience that awaits you in beautiful Belize.

Once a former British colony which was known as British Honduras, Belize is a Caribbean country located on the northeastern coast of Central America.

On the northwest of the country is Mexico, on the southwest is Guatemala and on all of the east is the breathtaking and alluring Caribbean Sea. With a rich culture and history, Belize has become one of the favoured destinations for all kinds of wandering souls.

There are endless activities you can do in Belize. Here are some of the most incredible experiences you can have while traversing in the tropical paradise.

1.    Snorkelling & Scuba Diving - Belize is home to The Belize Barrier Reef, a series of coral reefs that was declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1996. In 1842, Charles Darwin described it as "the most remarkable reef in the West Indies." One snorkelling hot spot considered by local guides as the best snorkelling adventures is Hol Chan Marine Reserve. The marine wildlife in the area is unlike any other: swim with sea turtles, nurse sharks, stingrays and countless colourful fishes.

2.    Explore the Caves - consistently claiming the spot of National Geographic's number one most sacred cave in the world, Actun Tunichil Muknal is worth every hype and buzz. It should be on every adventurer's bucket list. The guided tour takes you trekking through the jungle and rivers. From the mouth of the cave, you have to swim through exciting crevices until you reach a dry chamber. Here you witness for yourself the cave formations and remnants of an ancient civilization. Mayan pots, relics and sacrificial remains have been preserved for visitors to see.

3.    Explore the wildlife and nature parks - Belize is home to more than 500 species of birds. There are well kept and properly managed zoos, wildlife reserves, and sanctuaries abounding in the country. If you wish to learn more about conservation education and wildlife protection and rehabilitation, visit the Belize Zoo. For nature parks, hike through a rolling pine forest with granite hillsides in the Mountain Pine Ridge Forest in Cayo, Belize. There's an abundance of nature parks to choose from including Mayflower Bocawaina, Rio Blanco and the Blue Hole.

4.    Visit Maya Temples - Belize has the highest concentration of Mayan Temple in all of Central America. Once the epicentre of the Maya Civilization, you have plenty of sites to choose from. If you want to pair it with horseback riding adventures or leisurely walks, you can check out the options, here.

5.    Go on a Reboot Getaway - After all that adventure, you just want to destress and relax. Take a plunge in the pool or lounge on beach chairs. Witness the sunrise or drink to the sunset with your own beachfront view. BWG Lifestyle offers this luxury villa in the world-class Cayo Espanto. You can book your future stay here.
