Weather in August

In Belize, August continues the trend of the wet season with elevated humidity levels and significant rainfall. The average temperatures range from a low of 24°C (75.2°F) during the night to a high of 31°C (87.8°F) in the daytime. Despite the high humidity, Belize continues to receive about nine hours of daylight each day.

The lack of northern trade winds during this period means coastal cities like Belize City and San Pedro do not benefit from a cooling sea breeze. Instead, the prevailing climatic conditions exhibit the true tropical nature of Belize, characterized by high humidity and frequent rain showers.

In terms of precipitation, August sees an average of 213mm (8.39") of rainfall across the country, marking a slight increase from July. The reprieve provided by the "little dry" period in July typically ends by early August, and the rainfall distribution remains uniform across the country, with the southern and inland regions like Punta Gorda and Dangriga experiencing slightly higher rainfall.

Compared to September, the following month, August is slightly cooler and less rainy. Despite the heightened rainfall, there are still opportunities to engage in outdoor activities, particularly on days with less rainfall. The wet conditions also offer a unique perspective on Belize's lush forests and wildlife, making it an attractive period for nature enthusiasts.
