Belize : When to go ?

The high tourist season extends from December to May, while the low season extends from June to November. The high season starts fully with the year-end holidays. A small regime drop is taking place at the end of January, before taking up a steady pace starting in mid-February. The high season enjoys a very favourable climate for relaxation, while the low season is subjected to long rainy days. But the advantage of travelling in low season is to benefit from bulk discounts that can sometimes go up to 50% discount on room rates. If the special low season rates are not indicated during your booking, then consider negotiating. August, known for its periods of drought, is therefore ideal for enjoying interesting rates and a mild climate.
