Huatulco does not have traditional seasons that you would expect in temperate climates; instead, there is a wet and dry season. The dry season usually lasts from October through April, while the wet season lasts from May to September. Don’t let the wet season deter you from booking your vacation then; rainfall is usually short lived and intermittent. This provides plenty of opportunities to explore during the day while saving money on your favorite activities!
Another thing to consider when debating the best time to visit Huatulco is what piques your interest. Visitors who want the best snorkeling experience can visit during the winter, and vacationers who want to experience local events will find plenty to do during the summer and fall. Read on to discover what you can do during each season in Huatulco!
Summer in Oaxaca is part of the rainy season but still offers plenty of sunny days with highs in the low 90s. The rainfall transforms the vegetation into a lush green, making summer one of the most beautiful times to visit us! If you are considering visiting during July, plan your getaway around Guelaguetza Festival, which celebrates Oaxacan culture. For adventure travelers, summer is also the best time to surf and a great time to enjoy waterfalls and white water rafting!
September can be one of the rainiest months of the year, so we recommend planning your fall getaway later in the season. Temperatures remain warm in the fall, with daytime highs in the 90s and lows in the 80s at night. Visit us in mid-September to celebrate Mexico’s Independence Day, or wait till the first of November to celebrate the infamous Dia de Los Muertos.
Winter is the high season in Huatulco when an influx of snowbirds returns to Mexico looking to escape the cold. With the influx of crowds, lodging and activities increase in price, making winter the most expensive time to visit Huatulco. Winter also brings the return of local wildlife to our waters, like humpback whales and sea turtles.
Huatulco is hottest from Late March to early May, but the season is generally dry. If you visit during April, you can plan your getaway around Semana Santa or Holy Week. If you wait till May, you can join the Puerto Escondido fishing tournament or annual Mole Festival, where you can sample all seven moles.
Now that you know what each Oaxacan season offers, you can easily figure out the best time to visit Huatulco. My Huatulco Vacation provides the region’s widest selection of condos, villas, and luxury vacation rentals.
