Raincoat in March?
Posted: Wed January 14, 2009 04:47 AM UTC

A quick packing question...trying to keep the weight down. Should we bother packing a good raincoat for March in Belize? Am thinking no, but thought I'd ask....
Thanks.

Well, you can always buy a rain coat there. Why bother to bring it.... Go and have fun there in Belize and be happy that you can travel. No rain will bother you. Smile and have a good trip.

I went last march to belize and don't remember there being too much of a threat of rain during that time.

Yes and no-
Bring something water resistant but at the same time remember that it'll be in the 70s-80s-maybe 90s so a you'll overheat quick.Just make sure its lightweight.Carry some quart/gallon ziplock bags for your camera and just drip dry.Maybe something for the spray when you're out on the watertaxi?

Are you going to be in the mountains anywhere on your trip?

You're starting to count the days at this point aren't you? Good luck-C

We will be in the San Ignacio area for 4 days and into Guatemala for two days. En route to Panama now...didn't pack much more than a layer or two for warmth and left the rain coats home. Ever the optimist! Looking forward to both places.
