Belize Timeshare Vacation or Stay on the Boat and Knit

Before I get in trouble with the knitters of the world, let me make it clear that I’m not making fun of knitting. I recognize that knitting has become seriously popular in recent years. Many people have taken up their knitting needles as both a creative and relaxing outlet.

But I have to admit that I was a little surprised to learn there is a market for knitting-themed cruise vacations. Next February, Norwegian Cruise Line is offering The Great Balls of Yarn Cruise. The cruise was started two years ago by the owner of a chain of knitting stores in Florida, and brings together knitting enthusiasts along with celebrities from the world of knitting.

During these cruises, you can take classes to improve your technique, learn to knit a different garment each day of the cruise, and socialize with other knitters at yarn sales that masquerade as cocktail parties.

The next Great Balls of Yarn Cruise tours Belize and Honduras, which is really what caught my attention most. Belize happens to be one of the most incredible vacation destinations on the planet. I could easily devote all my blog posts for the month of October to the wonders of Belize and never cover the same information twice.

And while I applaud anyone who recognizes the value of a hobby, especially one that is as productive, yet rhythmic and relaxing as knitting, it makes me cringe that visitors to Belize might be distracted by any endeavor that caused them to miss the splendor of this tropical getaway. I’ve used the word “un-Belizeable” to describe this amazing country so frequently on our Sell My Timeshare NOW website that our marketing department has tried to ban me from saying it again.

Belize is the only English-speaking country in Central America. It is where the tropical Caribbean meets ancient Mayan ruins and is culturally both Caribbean and Central American.

The Belize Barrier Reef is over 200 miles of lacework coral, second only in size to the Great Barrier Reef of Australia. A Belize vacation not only means swimming, snorkeling, scuba diving, sailing, and sport fishing, but the opportunity to explore ancient ruins, an amazing network of inland caves, and some of the most pristine jungles in the world.

Hotels in Belize tend to be a bit pricey, which is one of the reasons that Belize timeshare vacations are so attractive. You can take advantage of a Belize timeshare resale or a Belize timeshare rental at a great price, leaving you plenty of vacation dollars for exploring, renting scuba gear, or even buying more knitting yarn.

If you have your heart set on cruising, you’ll be interested in Forbes Magazine’s recent article on the, “World’s Most Unusual Cruises”. Who knows, you may even be able to exchange timeshare points through your timeshare exchange company for an Elvis cruise, a motorcycle lovers cruise, or that knitting cruise you’ve been dreaming about.
