November and December is one of the best times to visit Belize and Placencia, and getting to this magnificent country just got a lot easier.
Here are five great reasons to visit Placencia this November:
Escape the Tourist High Season
Starting in November, Belize can sometimes be a crowded place as vacationers wanting to escape the cold weather in North America head to the sunny beaches of Placencia. November and December in Placencia means fewer crowds, cooler breezes, and amazing deals! Discover why it is a hidden gem for travel.
The Reef
Whether you like fishing, sea kayaking, scuba diving, sailing, snorkeling, or just working on your tan, there are few places more lovely to visit in November and December than the Belize Barrier Reef, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Two protected marine conservation areas are located just a few miles offshore from Placencia, and some of the finest dive sites in the world are found in the southern part of the reef near Placencia.
The Jungle
Not to be outdone, the jungles of Belize offer plenty to see and do for visitors as well. Over 600 ancient Maya temples, pyramids, and sacred sites dot the landscape, and there are dozens of national parks, animal sanctuaries, and wildlife refuges to visit. Popular activities include hiking, horseback riding, bird watching, zip lining, and cave tubing (floating down underground rivers).
The jungle is home to 300 species of orchids, some 600 species of birds, and exotic animals like giant iguanas, black howler monkeys, and jaguars.
Reduced Rates on Accommodation
With November falling during the “off” season, many of the country’s finest hotels and resorts offer steep discounts. Many tourists are surprised to discover just how affordable staying in a luxury beach resort can be in November and December.
If you’re heading to Placencia in November, be sure to stay at Chabil Mar Resort. Located just steps from the beach, Chabil Mar is a multiple award-winning resort and perennial TripAdvisor favorite.
