Birding Expeditions 
With almost 400 species documented within a 3-mile radius, Lamanai Outpost Lodge is definitely Belize’s premier birding location. Habitats range from vast wetlands and broadleaf forests to pine savannahs and all are easily accessible by boat, trails, vehicle or canoe. Our guides will tailor your activities to access your target species in an environment where 200+ species in 3 days is far from unusual. Our Spotlight Safari provides an amazing opportunity to see roosting waders, nocturnals and some of the more elusive diurnal species up close and personal. Regular sightings include the Northern Potoo, Yucatan Nightjar, Common Pauraque and Nighthawk, Grey-necked Wood Rail, Sungrebe and Agami Heron.

Belize has a subtropical climate. That means, it is hot all year round, however, from June to December it is ‘wet season’. This usually means that during the days it is hot and humid and in the afternoon or at night it rains, sometimes, a lot. During the dry season it can also rain, but usually, it is dryer. The wet season is also the time when hurricanes are most likely, although due to the location of this lodge they are not generally considered an issue.

Christmas to May is high season in Belize.

Electricity & Water

The electricity at the lodge uses 110 volt/60Mhz electricity, the same as it is in the States and power is supplied twenty-four hours per day. Water from any lodge faucet is suitable for drinking and bottled water is readily available.

Insects:

Around the lodge grounds, main lodge facility and cabanas, insects are extremely minimal and do not present a problem. Insects encountered in the jungle are normally minimal but at times they can be a consideration that is easily attended to with bug spray – very similar to many locations in the States. All cabanas are fully screened.

What to Bring:

• Lightweight clothing and footwear
• A windbreaker and raincoat
• A flashlight, binoculars, camera, spare
• film and batteries, chargers
• Any medicines that you may require
