Carrying light clothing and plenty of water is key to facing the heat that does in Playa, even in winter!
In any case, knowing that the temperature is pleasant is not enough to choose the date of your trip; after all, when it comes to the Caribbean, it is always important to think about the hurricane season. Officially, the season starts in June and ends at the end of November, but that does not mean that during this long period the city will suffer from them - quite the contrary, what has happened in recent years is that there are no hurricanes in this area.
September and October are not recommended months to travel because the rainfall in this period is higher, as well as the possibility of hurricanes occurring. Despite this, this is a time when you can get deals on both the airfare and the accommodations. Winter is high season: December, January and February are months in which Playa receives many tourists. Rainfall can occur throughout the year but, except in the rainy months, will rarely spoil the trip.
