Best time to visit Cancún:
Winter (December to February): This season is one of the most popular times to visit Quintana Roo. The weather is mild and pleasant, perfect for beach activities, exploring Mayan ruins, and enjoying water sports without the intense heat of summer. However, it's also the peak tourist season, so expect larger crowds and higher prices.
Spring (March to May): Spring brings warmer temperatures and is a great time for beach visits and exploring archaeological sites. The weather is still comfortable before the hotter and more humid months of summer, and it's a good time for outdoor activities.
Summer (June to August): Summers in Quintana Roo can be hot and humid. While it might not be the most comfortable time for extensive outdoor activities due to the heat, it's still a popular time for beach vacations and water-related activities. This period also coincides with hurricane season (June to November), although major storms are less frequent in the region.
Autumn (September to November): Autumn experiences similar temperatures to spring, making it another suitable time to visit. It's generally less crowded than the peak winter season, and you might find better deals on accommodations and activities.
