Why “Rainy Season” Might Be the Best Time to Escape to Belize

Best Time to Visit Belize

Who wouldn’t want to escape to a Caribbean island when life feels overwhelming? Palm trees. Lush sandy beaches. And the rhythm of waves washing ashore has no equal. On the other hand, who wants to pay a fortune for a tropical getaway only to have the experience ruined by bad weather? Can you guarantee that this won’t happen? Not unless you’ve got Mother Nature on speed dial.

You likely already know that some months near the equator are rainier than others, which is why the Caribbean rim is lavished with trees, flowers, jungles, and rainforests. The rainiest months happen to be October and November, so an uptick in tourists during that period must confuse you. Turns out rain rumors have only increased the number of visitors heading for Belize each fall—especially those heading to Manta Island Resort, a private enclave of happiness and fun.

6 things to expect from “rainy” months at Manta Island Resort

 Belize rainy season travel

  1. Opportunities to discover that rumors of constant rain in Belize are exaggerated, so remove the assumption from your brain.
  2. Acknowledge the fact that downpours aren’t showers. Showers are like kisses, and they’re never an inconvenience at Manta. Most guests arrive expecting to spend a huge portion of time in the pool and in the ocean, thus those showers barely register.
  3. Showers are sporadic and tend to appear after guests enjoy sun-filled mornings that make ideal times to visit any of Belize’s 900+ Mayan ruins.
  4. Can you guess when most showers take place? If you said nighttime, consider playing trivia because you’re on the money! Nighttime showers are considered “pink noise” by research scientists who undertake sleep studies. Rain is the ultimate calming sound to enhance slumber.
  5. Be prepared for the synchronicity between tropical rain, calm seas, and elements contributing to ideal snorkeling and diving conditions. It’s as though gentle rains enhance both as serious divers and snorkelers can attest.
  6. Wondering why a stay at Manta Island Resort is so affordable between June and November? Thank those showers for helping you afford a fabulous vacation without liquidating your stock portfolio! In fact, you can contribute to the rumor that rain is ever-present, so you continue to get price breaks.

Tuck a small, fold-down poncho into your luggage…

…if having one makes you feel comfortable, and if you avail yourself of the resort’s specials when you book, you’re not going to care about showers because your discounted digs make ideal places for respites when you’ve had enough sun and fun outside.

Dancing in the rain? You probably haven’t dodged raindrops and puddles since you were a kid, so take this opportunity to return to those fun days. We recommend downloading your favorite tunes when the urge to dance strikes since the resort’s All Inclusive Package takes care of everything else. Don’t be surprised if other delighted Manta guests join you when you dance in the rain!
