What is the weather like in Belize?
When we asked people living in Belize about the weather in Belize, they said...
"The weather in Belize is typically warm and humid, with temperatures ranging from the mid-70s to the mid-80s Fahrenheit throughout the year. The rainy season typically runs from May to November, with the heaviest rainfall occurring in September and October. The dry season runs from December to April, with the coolest temperatures occurring in January and February," said another expat in Belize.
"I would be cautious about letting a summer visit determine whether you can get through the humidity. You’d be coming at the hottest and most humid time of the year, yes, but potentially without the opportunity to acclimatize. My husband and I moved to the Cayo last October and temps were still in high 80s to low 90s (with very high humidity). Not pleasant! Now, when we hit those temps, we don’t feel it as we did 4-5 months ago. It can take months to properly acclimate. And we know that the hottest months are still ahead of us," wrote a member who made the move to Carmelita Gardens, Belize.
