Corozal also constantly has the sea breeze and that blows the mosquitoes away. You will find mosquitoes the further you go inland as the breeze gets weaker, but when you’re on the bay, there are not too many mosquitoes.

In our area in Corozal, the sandflies are not really here but they are in the southern parts of Belize like Placencia, which is a big problem there. Here in Northern Belize, you will get doctor flies, which land on you and you don’t know it because you don’t feel them until they take a gouge out of you.
Most people are smart so if they go out at night, they’ll just spray themselves down. So yes, mosquitoes and other insects might be a problem here but it is not really a deterrent moving to this part of the country of Belize unless you’re in the middle of a jungle.
Generally speaking, other than between 6 PM and 7 PM, we don’t get many mosquitoes here unless when it rains and we get pooling. It is not a problem during the day. I can get out and I don’t get covered in mosquitoes. If you are down by the sea, where there is constant breeze, you won’t be bothered at all until dusk, when there would be some.
