Belize City in April
Great time to visit
The shoulder season begins with rising heat and humidity but fewer tourists. Weather becomes less predictable, but you'll save money and have attractions mostly to yourself.
Weather
April transitions into the wet season with increasing humidity and occasional afternoon showers. Temperatures push into the high 80s during the day, and nights rarely drop below 75°F. The air grows noticeably stickier as trade winds weaken.

All Months
December through April brings the driest weather and coolest temperatures — highs around 82°F with trade winds keeping humidity bearable. This is peak season, so expect higher hotel rates and more cruise ship crowds. May through November is rainy season, but don't let that scare you off entirely. Morning showers clear by afternoon most days, and you'll find better hotel deals. Hurricane season runs June through November, with September and October being the riskiest months. The city celebrates September Independence Day with parades and street parties — worth timing your visit around if you can handle the heat and humidity.
