Belmopan Weather in November

November stays wet

November in Belmopan feels warm, sticky and often cloudy. The high is 28°C and the low is 21°C, with rain on many days. Showers can interrupt outdoor plans, and trails may turn muddy.

Rainfall eases from October, but November is still much wetter than December. Keep long hikes and countryside trips flexible. A dry spell suits a visit to the Belmopan market or the city's National Assembly building. If you hate crowds, this is a quieter time to explore.

Garifuna Settlement Day

Garifuna Settlement Day falls on November 19 and is a public holiday in Belize. The main celebrations are in Dangriga, not Belmopan. They include drumming, dancing and a re-enactment of the Garifuna people's arrival by sea.

You can make the trip from Belmopan if you want to experience the holiday, but expect more people around the celebrations. In town, holiday opening hours may affect shops and services.

Fewer visitors, damp trails

November is part of Belize's rainy, lower season. Belmopan usually sees fewer visitors and softer accommodation prices than during the drier months, especially February and March. Rain can still disrupt plans, so don't treat a quiet visit as a guarantee of clear days.

Travelling with kids? Guanacaste National Park is an easy local outing, but its paths can be slippery after rain. Ask at the entrance about trail conditions before setting off. For a longer walk, wait for a dry spell rather than tackling a muddy trail.
