There’s a lot to be said about winter travel—especially if you live in an area beset by snow, requiring you to navigate sheets of ice and sub-zero temperatures. Escaping this environment is trending so dramatically, the winter vacation is fast becoming the best season to get away—especially for families who are not reticent to take their kids out of school for an opportunity to trade snow days for beaches, sunshine, and fun.
Some escapees pick the hottest resorts, towns, and destinations for their getaways, but if you don’t happen to be one of them, off-the-beaten-path destinations are trendy too, because they offer all of the perks of a winter escape—minus the crowds, inflated prices, and impossible queues. Sound good? Select Hopkins, Belize as the place where you’ll thaw out. It’s the quintessential off-the-beaten-path destination where it’s possible to get so laid-back, that you could forget to check your cell phone for messages!
Why Hopkins is the ideal off-the-beaten-path destination
- In Hopkins, you’ll learn more about Belize culture than you would at the “happening” places that draw party crowds. Home to a thriving Garifuna community, these residents are descendants of enslaved people brought to the Western Hemisphere in the 1600s.
- Thanks to this diverse cultural mix, Hopkins is not just an epicenter of fabulous music, arts, cooking, and history, but it has been proclaimed “the Friendliest Village in Belize” by Belize First Magazine.
- Given Hopkins’s laid-back vibe, every day of your winter vacation will be more tranquil, less chaotic, and the perfect antidote to every stressor you inadvertently brought with you from the cold north.
- Your billfold will thank you for choosing Hopkins over “more happening” towns where you would likely spend more money but be forced to settle for less personal service.
- Spending time in Hopkins will force you to be more spontaneous and adaptable. While you’ll sojourn on the coastline, find out how relaxing and comfortable it is in a smaller, more hospitable environment.
