Clothes

Clothing-wise you will need more like a spring and summer wardrobe, but don’t forget to bring a few warm items for the night up on volcano Acatenango. We would definitely recommend a warm jumper for most nights around Antigua and the lake, but also shorts for warmer days around Livingston and Flores. Also if you have one, bring a rain jacket as the weather especially around the Caribbean and north-eastern side towards Belize can be quite varied. In general, we recommend versatile clothing. A warmer maybe a bit oversized button down, that can be a shirt, but also add some extra coziness with a jumper or hoodie. If you have any questions, just shoot us a message and we are happy to help you. We know it can be hard to make a final decision.
