Field notes
Hot humid year-round (25–28°C) with steady trade winds. Hurricane season (June–November) brings indirect impacts; Belize's southern position means direct hits are rare though tropical storms still graze the coast. Dry season (December–April) is the postcard window — sunny, calm seas, prime visibility for reef diving. Wet season (May–November) brings daily afternoon storms but mornings stay workable.
