Best Times to Visit
Finding the best time to visit means balancing climate conditions with crowd levels and the most attractive prices for travel and on-site expenses.
While the ideal climate-wise is to avoid the rainy season—especially September to early November, which is hurricane season—the period from Christmas to Easter is also peak season, with higher prices and crowds. Though the rest of the year may be considered low season, late July to early August draws visitors for Carnival. Taking all this into account, late April to May or early December offers the best balance across all factors.
