Belize 2025? If you’ve got it on the agenda, you might be wondering when is the best time to visit. While the country has much to offer no matter the time of year, some months promise the perfect blend of good weather, great prices, and amazing adventures. Of course, most will agree that the dry season, which runs from late December to early June, is the best time to visit Belize. There is, however, one month during that time that might just make for the ideal vacation. Here’s why you should set your sights on Belize for May 2025.

The Best Time to Visit Belize for Great Deals and Perfect Weather

Here in the Belizean jungle, the warm and dry weather means that trails are clear and perfect for exploring. Plus, longer daylight hours mean more time to enjoy the scenic landscapes of places like Laguna Verde and Laguna Seca. And for those extra hot days, our onsite, screened-in pool acts as an oasis in the heart of the rainforest.

The month of May falls within Belize’s dry season, a time when both the weather and travel are at their best. Anyone visiting Belize in May can expect little rainfall during the day alongside warm temperatures and sunny skies. This means being able to enjoy outdoor adventures, like hiking, canoeing, horseback riding, and more, without a hitch.

Because the month is at the tail end of the dry season, however, you can expect much fewer crowds than in months like December and January.  Additionally, the lull in travel that comes after Belize’s Easter holiday (which falls in April this year), means that travelers can also look forward to travel deals and slightly reduced accommodation prices.

How to Enjoy Your Belize Vacation This May

Beyond the deals, May is also the best time to visit Belize if you’re looking for fun an adventure. As far as events and activities go, there’s no shortage of things to do during this time. In the Belize River Valley, May means its cashew season. Communities in that area celebrate in a grand way via the annual Cashew Festival. Meanwhile, in the Toledo district, the Chocolate Festival of Belize acts as a celebration of all things cacao.
