Belize, with its diverse climate, offers warm weather throughout the year. November to April is the dry season, featuring sunny days and lower humidity, making it perfect for exploring the country's rich natural and cultural attractions. This period is ideal for visiting the Mayan ruins, snorkeling in the Barrier Reef, and enjoying the beautiful beaches and lush rainforests.
May to October is the wet season, marked by occasional rain showers, typically in the form of brief downpours. Despite the rain, this time of year brings vibrant green landscapes and fewer tourists. It’s a great opportunity to experience Belize’s natural beauty, including its diverse wildlife and dense jungles, as well as take advantage of the warm waters for diving and fishing.
