If you’re still thinking about visiting Belize, don’t hesitate a moment longer. November is a great time to visit.

Here are a few amazing reasons why you should travel to Belize in November:

Enjoy Great Weather

November is the start of the dry season in Belize. The plants and trees are still lush and green, but there is less chance of rain. The days are long and sunny, and the nights are cool.

Get Great Deals

Many hotels and transportation companies offer deep discounts in November. Explore Chabil Mar’s November packages and specials!

Garifuna Settlement Day

Celebrate the heritage of Belize’s colorful Garifuna people. The Garifuna are the descendants of Africans who escaped from a sinking slave ship and made their way to Central America. On November 19, you can enjoy a festival filled with authentic Garifuna food, music and dancing.

Battle of the Drums

Another homage to Garifuna culture, the annual Battle of the Drums is a drumming competition that draws competitors from all over Belize, Guatemala and Honduras. Come and hear some the best drummers in Central America. It takes place in Punta Gorda, the capital of Belize’s Toledo District, on November 17.

Visit Some Wonderful Wildlife

Learn about Belize’s most enchanting, exotic wildlife species when you visit the Belize Zoo and Tropical Education Center. This wildlife sanctuary is home to dozens of orphaned or rescued mammals, birds and reptiles. It is the first sanctuary in Belize to be completely wheelchair-accessible.

See spectacular scenery and more exotic creatures at Cockscomb Basin Wildlife Sanctuary, the world’s first jaguar preserve. This beautiful park offers walking trails, waterfalls, bird-watching and the chance to interact with all kinds of wildlife.

Take It Easy on Placencia Peninsula

The Placencia Peninsula is an ideal location for your Belize vacation. It’s close to most of the main attractions. It’s also a lovely area.

From Chabil Mar, it’s an easy walk or bicycle ride into charming Placencia Village, where you can enjoy shopping, dining and nightlife. The beaches of Placencia are the loveliest in Belize.

Chow Down on Conch

November is conch season in Belize. It’s a great time to try this tasty shellfish in conch fritters, conch soup and many other local delicacies. If conch doesn’t do it for you, Belize has wonderful restaurants of all kinds.

Indulge Yourself at the Chabil Mar

Enjoy every moment of your Belize vacation when you indulge yourself at the luxurious Chabil Mar.

Relaxation can add years to your life. Find your bliss in Placencia, and you could live even longer!

There is no place in Belize that holds a candle to Placencia. This finger of a landmass has become a hot spot because it’s so relaxing. Spend a bundle? Not you. There’s lots to do that won’t empty your wallet but you’ll still immerse yourself in the area’s most relaxing experiences if you check out these 5 suggestions.

1. Visit the Placencia Municipal Pier by day or night. There’s plenty to do and see, including watching cruise ships sail by on their way to docking for off-ship excursions.

Home to “the Boardwalk,” this hub is an ideal place to stroll after dining at local eateries or skip the meal and head straight for a cool ice cream treat. Not big on sweets? Grab a frosty Belikin. If you spot a school of tarpon surfacing to snag small fish and insects after the sun goes down, it’s not the brew. It’s nature!

2. Stake out a spot on the beach outside your Chabil Mar Villas accommodation where luxury and award-winning service await. Have your breakfast out on the beach or grab a spicy summer read. Find out how it feels to read an entire chapter without the kids interrupting or the dryer notifying you that it’s time to fold.

Exquisitely furnished sea-facing villas with verandas that offer up to 2,000 square feet of living space are available, but if you’re in Placencia to regain your equilibrium, you’ll still get all of the luxe perks you crave in the smallest digs.

3. Feed your active soul. Not everyone relaxes by lying about in the lap of luxury while summoning staff to bring cocktails to their lounge chair. You may belong to the school of relaxation that requires you to stay busy.

Chabil Mar has everything you require to stay on the go from morning to night. Bike, kayak or paddle board using the resort’s equipment to try something new. Swim in both of Chabil Mar’s infinity pools. If you can’t detach from reality, use the Wi-Fi connection provided by the resort, but remember your mantra: RELAX.

4. Become a sunset watcher. From the perch on your villa veranda, the resort’s beach or other vantage points that offer unobstructed access to the sea, reap benefits from watching the sunset every day during your vacation, say scientists.

Sunsets have been proven to improve moods, make meditation a more powerful experience and slow down time. Isn’t that what exactly what you crave when you’re on vacation?

5. Find balance by investigating specialty tours arranged by Chabil Mar that can challenge you to do things you’ve yet to try. Packages and specials may tap into a part of you that needs to be discovered.

Browse the Belize vacation package menu to see if something irresistible calls out to you. Something surprising could upend your definition of relaxation and leave you hungry for more!
