When to go
The best time to visit Belize for a beach holiday, and for exploring atolls and coral reefs, is from
February to April, in fact it is the period when the rains are scarcer, and the heat is not as muggy as in the following months. January falls in the cool period, although it is a bit rainier, but overall you can also go in this month.
To go in search of the Mayan ruins, in March and especially in April the heat can be intense in the interior, though on the positive side we are in the middle of the dry season.
From May to October, in addition to the rainy season, you must take into account the sultry and unpleasant heat. From June to November it is useful to recall the risk of hurricanes, which as mentioned are most likely in September and October.
What to pack
From
December to March, bring light clothes, but also a sweatshirt or sweater for the evening and for windy days.
From
April to November, bring tropics-friendly, loose-fitting clothing, light shirts and pants, comfortable and breathable shoes, a sun hat, sunglasses, and also a light sweatshirt and a light raincoat for thunderstorms.
When going to the reef, you can bring snorkeling equipment, including water shoes or rubber-soled shoes.
