PACKING AND TRAVEL TIPS

Ambergis Caye Weather:

AccuWeather is pretty accurate - but please note - Belize forecasts will frequently show nothing but rain during our rainy season from June-October. While it may rain almost every day in rainy season, these are usually short bursts, mostly at night. It is rare to have multiple days or even a full day of rain here - statistically, you have a slight chance of weather affecting your plans here!
