Mexico’s weather varies dramatically by region and season, but for most travellers the key question is simple: the Caribbean coast around Cancún, Playa del Carmen and Tulum is hot and humid year-round, with a distinct rainy season from May to October. The live forecast above gives the current conditions for your chosen spot.

What is the weather like in Mexico by month?

Mexico’s climate splits broadly into a dry season (November to April) and a wet season (May to October). On the Riviera Maya and in Cozumel, dry months bring clear skies and highs of 28–32°C, while the wet season sees daily tropical downpours, often brief, with temperatures climbing to 35°C. Inland cities like Mexico City enjoy a milder, spring-like climate year-round, with a rainy summer. For a month-by-month breakdown, check our 10-day forecast UK comparisons, though Mexico’s patterns are far more predictable.

What about weather in Cancún, Playa del Carmen and Tulum right now?

These three resorts share a similar coastal climate. The live forecast above shows the current temperature and humidity for Cancún. Playa del Carmen and Tulum are usually within a degree or two, though Tulum can feel slightly breezier due to its open coastline. For a 10-day outlook covering the whole Yucatán, the UK weather hub can help you compare conditions at home before you travel.

Is Mexico hot all year round?

Yes, most coastal resorts stay above 25°C year-round. Inland cities like Mexico City have a spring-like climate (15–25°C) with a rainy summer. Only high-altitude areas like Mexico City get chilly nights in winter.

When is hurricane season in Mexico?

Hurricane season officially runs from June to November, with the highest risk in August and September. The Caribbean coast (Cancún, Cozumel, Tulum) is most exposed; the Pacific coast sees fewer direct hits.
