Chances are, unless there is a specific function which requires it, you’re not going to
need formal attire while in Belize. Cool, comfortable, casual clothing such as shorts, T-shirts
and/or camp shirts, light weight cotton pants, and sundresses will cover all your clothing needs.
Be sure to pack comfortable walking shoes for sightseeing, and sandals for the water and beach.
If you’re going to be trekking in the jungle, a pair of well-treaded hiking shoes is also recommended.
A knapsack, or daypack is a great idea for day trips and expeditions. In it you can carry water bottles,
snacks, camera, film, and other essentials such as sunscreen and insect repellent. The intensity of the
sun makes polarized sunglasses, good sunscreen, and a brimmed hat essential.
Just in case there’s an unexpected (or maybe very expected) rain shower,
include lightweight raingear in your suitcase as well. Your valuables are best left at home.

Nothing invites trouble like a tourist with lots of jewelry, expensive or not. If you can,
leave it at home, else leave it locked up at your hotel when you are out site seeing or doing any
activity away from your hotel.
