Days 1–5 are usually reliable, 6–10 drift, 11–14 are the model guessing. Check again the day before you fly — more on what this can and can't do.

When to go

From the 2026 climate study, not the live forecast.
RecommendedAvoid

Dry season is April through October, peaking in August — that's when to come. August is meteorologically near-perfect (driest, sunniest, coolest nights) but also when European school holidays collide here. The El Niño of 2023–2024 extended the dry season into October. November–March: 280–350 mm/month, debris on beaches. Scooter without an IDP voids your insurance.
