Unless you’ve been ignoring print and digital health news, you know that encouragement to “get outdoors” is so pervasive, even physicians formally recommend it. For example, Dr. Robert Zarr, a practitioner who “doubles as a nature guide,” according to an article published in Axios newsletter, launched Park RX America in 2016, asking fellow medical professionals to follow his lead and prescribe nature outings! Nearly 2,000 doctors signed up, issuing thousands of nature prescriptions annually.
When temperatures start to dip at year’s end, even the most enthusiastic prescription holders have been known to ignore this sage advice, but the smart ones make year-end pilgrimages to places like the Caribbean to enjoy their self-mandated, end-of-year outdoor time. Are you one of them? You’ll be interested in knowing about a family-friendly island off Belize’s coast where memory-making and health benefits are non-stop.
What’s the point of year-end vacation in the sun? You stay healthier!
Writer Mia Barnes consulted Japanese experts who say that “winter vacationers experience a higher degree of well-being” that leads to personal growth and expanded fulfillment. Taking a year-end break gives you an opportunity to step away from your responsibilities at a time most people are stressed out by holidays and in need of getaways. Make Manta Island Resort your target destination, and expect a health boost likely to stick around for weeks after your return.
People who leave freezing northern temperatures for hot spots like Manta enjoy warm social exchanges while recreating (boating, fishing, diving)-both of which boost mental health and immune systems. You’ll discover a sun-soaked, family-friendly haven where everyone speaks English, year-end escape wishes come true, and the best memories are made during even the shortest stay.
It’s not an island; it’s heaven
Manta Island Resort has everything you crave in a 2025 winter holiday. Located on an ancient coral reef, kids love ancient pirate tales associated with Glover’s Reef’s history, and you can encourage them to read one of many books written about the reef on your plane ride to Belize or during your stay. Expect your kids’ teachers to compliment you on encouraging your kids’ continued education during this year-end school break.
For mom and dad, Manta’s luxurious spa services and yoga deck access are ultimate pleasures after what has likely been a stress-filled year. Further, even picky eaters tend to dive into dishes on the resort’s menu, and guests are delighted to find that special dietary requests are always accommodated.
