When it comes to vacation spots around winter time, millions of people in the upper hemisphere tend to look for somewhere nice and warm - and can you blame them? Even if you’re the sort of person who’s likely to embrace chilly adventures when things start turning frosty at home, you really can’t deny the allure of a sunny trip to the Americas. And, Belize happens to be a tropical hotspot that needs to be on more travellers’ radars.

Found towards the east coast of Central America, Belize is a Caribbean neighbour with incredible beaches and stunning ruins - and there’s even some balmy jungle and spectacular ocean reefs to take in. Therefore, it’s an excellent getaway for adventurers in search of paradise any time of year.

But before you go ahead and book any flights or accommodation, of course, it’s always worth grabbing an eSIM! After all, that’s what we’re here for - but before we explore why you should load up your devices with data eSIMs before you travel, let’s take a closer look at Belize and why it absolutely deserves to be your passport’s next destination.

Safety First

Before we explore some of the great reasons to visit Belize, there is an elephant in the room, and unfortunately, it’s to do with the country’s crime rates. Depending on where you’re travelling from, such as the UK, you may be advised to travel to the country with extreme caution, due to violent crime and terrorism. However, it is generally considered safe for tourists, provided you follow guidance from your home nation’s government.

Never travel anywhere you don’t feel 100% safe to visit. While there are tons of wonderful things to explore in Belize, there are risks in travelling absolutely anywhere in the world, and there are steps you can take to make sure you are protected. One of the best things you can do, in fact, is make sure you travel in groups, and ensure you all have phones (and data active). It’s just one reason why you should always travel to Belize with an eSIM.

With that word of caution out of the way, however, let’s actually zoom in on some of the best reasons to break away to Belize.

Why Visit Belize?

Beyond the cities, Belize is almost unmatched when it comes to holiday variety, with incredible, crystal-clear waters, unspoiled coral reefs, and even ruins left over from the Mayan world. If you’re the sort of adventurer who loves to explore relics from centuries past, Belize should absolutely be hot on your radar.

It’s also pretty hot and humid out here! Belize is home to a lush jungle as well as miles of spectacular sands, with the nation sharing a coastline with the glorious Caribbean beyond. Whether you are a sunbather, a diver, or a historical buff, you’ll find all kinds of reasons to visit Belize, and even more to stay.

And then, there’s the cuisine - as you can imagine, there’s tons of tasty seafood out here, meaning we’d absolutely recommend you try a few local delicacies before you head home (if you can!).

It’s one of the few places we’d seriously recommend to both relaxed holidaygoers and those on the lookout for a big adventure or two. In fact, if you prefer a balance, you could relax on the sands here in the morning and go trekking in the evening! Again, safety is a must, so always ensure you travel with friends and family regardless of where your holiday takes you.

Why You’ll Need a Belize eSIM

As mentioned, safety is just one key reason why it’s worth loading your phone up with an eSIM in Belize. However, if you travel regularly and are tired of coming back home to extortionate phone bills, it’s well worth paying for your data upfront - and with SIMOVO, you can!

SIMOVO eSIMs are designed to offer you fantastic coverage for data across countries and continents all over the world. We’re travellers ourselves, and we want to give you easier access to the internet in some of the globe’s furthest-flung places. That goes for Belize as much as it does for anywhere else, and with your data topped up and ready to go, there’s no need to worry about hunting around for WiFi hotspots.

You might want to share photos and videos of your trip to Belize with friends and family from afar, or even stream music while you’re trekking - Netflix on the beach isn’t unheard of, either!

With all that in mind, make sure to choose a SIMOVO Belize eSIM that gives you the data you need for your trip. We offer between 1GB for a week and 20GB for 30 days, covering you via Digicell, a strong 4G provider that’ll keep you connected wherever possible. And, you can even tether your device, meaning you can share your data with the rest of your group if you wish!

If you know you’ll probably need more data when you travel to Belize, we also provide unlimited eSIMs, which roll over every 24 hours. That means you’ll never have to fret about waiting more time to get your data refreshed. Unlimited Belize eSIMs with SIMOVO grant you either 500MB or 1GB a day for between one and 30 days, meaning you’ll be covered for up to a month!

Getting started couldn’t be simpler, either. Once you’ve chosen an eSIM, purchase through our store and scan your unique QR code. When you land in Belize, your device will automatically connect to Digicell wherever possible.

No matter what you intend to use your phone or tablet for in Belize, don’t just rely on your usual phone carrier! Choose an eSIM from SIMOVO and make sure you’re always connected without paying over the top for the privilege.

Belize has tons of beautiful landscapes and history just waiting to be explored. Check travel advice with your home office, and take a few friends or relatives and come and explore this humid paradise for yourself.
