Playa del Carmen has a sub-tropical climate, which means it's almost always warm. Or hot. The annual average temperature is about 27C or 80F. Temperature is not the only consideration when in a tropical climate. All year around the humidity level is very high, often around 90 per cent. Weather here is pretty reliable, but there can be exceptions, as always the case when it comes to weather. Regardless of what time of year you get here, you will have great beach days and the ocean is always warm enough to swim in.

February to May

Spring is a beautiful time of year here, with very little rain and flowers everywhere. The ocean gets calmer and warmer, as temperature rises. Nights can still be a little cooler.

June to August

The summer in Playa is hot. This is also when the sea is the calmest, and has the best crystal clear turquoise look to it. Rainfall is seen. Nights do not get cooler. Thin cotton clothes and a hat are your best friends this time of year.

September to October

September and October is the time for tropical storms and hurricanes. It doesn't rain every day for two months, but there may be a period of more persistent rain. It's still warm.

November to January

November, December and January are the coolest months here, which means it's very comfortable. There might be some rain, but not on a daily. This time of year nights can be cooler because the winds from the US often finds their way to Playa, but the temperature is warm.

Enjoy your Vacations!!
