Why November and December Are the Best Months to Visit Placencia, Belize

There’s something magical about Belize in November and December. The air is warm but not stifling, the sea shimmers under a softer golden light, and the rhythm of life slows just enough to savor every moment. For those looking to escape the chill of autumn and the hustle of the holiday season, these months offer the perfect window to experience Belize’s charm — and Chabil Mar in Placencia is the ideal place to make it happen.

A Month of Perfect Weather and Fewer Crowds

November sits right at the sweet spot between the rainy season and peak tourism months. The skies are mostly clear, the humidity is more comfortable, and the occasional refreshing rain keeps everything lush and green.

Average daytime temperatures hover around the mid-80s°F (29°C), perfect for lounging by the pool, strolling along Placencia’s sandy beach, or heading out for a day on the water. Because it’s still considered “shoulder season,” you’ll enjoy quieter tours, uncrowded attractions, and a more laid-back atmosphere throughout the peninsula.

And if your trip extends into December, you’ll be treated to even more postcard-perfect weather. December in Placencia brings warm, sunny days with average highs around 82°F (28°C) and gentle breezes that make beach strolls, kayaking, and sailing a dream.

The festive atmosphere ramps up, too, as the village prepares for holiday celebrations and one of its most iconic sporting events — the End of the World Marathon, a scenic race along Placencia’s coastline that draws participants and spectators from all over the world. Whether you’re a runner or simply there to cheer from the sidelines, it’s an unforgettable way to experience the local energy.

Culture and Celebration in Full Swing

November in Belize isn’t just about perfect beach days — it’s also a time to experience some of the country’s most vibrant cultural celebrations. Garifuna Settlement Day on November 19 is a national holiday that comes alive in southern Belize, especially in Dangriga and Hopkins, but its joyful energy can be felt all the way to Placencia. Expect colorful parades, drumming, dancing, and delicious traditional foods like cassava bread and hudut. Staying at Chabil Mar gives you easy access to the festivities while allowing you to return to the quiet comfort of your villa when you’re ready to relax.
