We do get more rain in the south of Belize (where Placencia is located) than up north, especially during the rainy season. But the good thing is that, during the rainy season, it usually rains at night.
Some of the hotel people and real estate agents up north would say, “Oh Placencia is wet; just look at the statistics and look at how many inches of rain they get.” Yes we do get a lot of rain but these people do not explain to their clients honestly that it rains...

It rains from 11 PM to 5 AM super hard and stops and then the sun comes up and the rest is a beautiful day.
The rainy season is from June to December and the dry season is the rest of the year. During the dry season, there is less rain but it’s not like it doesn’t rain at all, although we can go for 3 weeks without rain. It rains just a little bit during the dry season.

Belize gets a lot of rain, but Placencia does not get as much as the rest of the country.The weather in Placencia is similar to the weather in Florida. I’ve lived in Florida for 12 years. From November to the middle of May, Placencia is picture perfect. It doesn’t rain a lot. The temperature is probably mid to high 70s, to low 80s and the humidity is not horrible. During the tail end of May, the rainy season starts. It mainly rains at night and it can rain hard for...

During the tail end of May, the rainy season starts. It mainly rains at night and it can rain hard for an hour or so. Then the sun pops up, unless it’s a slow moving storm. The sun will come out right after a heavy rain. The weather is magnificent in Belize nonetheless.
