Belize Weather for Sailors

The tropical climate can be hot especially February to May, although the prevailing wind helps to keep the coast cooler.

During the winter months, the anchorages are rather exposed to the northerly winds which sweep down across the Gulf of Mexico. These “northers” bring cloudy skies, wind, and drizzle and often in January and February, cold fronts will come through about every ten days.

The hurricane season lasts from June to November.
