Mexico & Central America in June

November through April gives you dry season across the region — perfect weather but higher prices and crowds. December and January see the biggest tourist influx, especially around Christmas and New Year's. Book accommodations early or expect to pay premium rates. May marks the start of rainy season, but here's the thing — it usually rains for a couple hours each afternoon, then clears up. You'll get lush green landscapes, fewer tourists, and better hotel deals. Just pack a rain jacket and plan indoor activities for late afternoons. Hurricane season runs June through November along the Caribbean coast. The Pacific side stays drier, making it perfect for beach time while the rest of the region gets soaked. Shoulder seasons (April-May and October-November) offer the best balance of decent weather and reasonable prices.
