Xcalak Weather and Climate Overview:
The best weather of the year is late spring - which curiously enough coincides with the least number of visitors. Early summer is nice also. By late summer it gets pretty hot & humid (this is the tropics) - although quite tolerable if you stay casual next to the refreshing Caribbean Sea.
"Rainy Season", a.k.a. Hurricane Season, is technically June thru November. But that doesn't mean 6 months of steady rain and/or hurricanes. Even in rainy season most days are predominately sunny with occasional showers & thunderstorms, not days on end of pouring rain unless a tropical storm or hurricane is visiting. Statistically there is only about a 5% chance of a tropical storm or hurricane disrupting your particular dates.
Mexico's South-Central region has a climate will be similar to that in Central Mexico, with elevated areas being cooler and more temperate. The climate gets distinctly hotter and more humid as you travel deeper into the south / southeast and the Yucatan Peninsula. As you reach the cities located within the Yucatan, proximity to the coast determines the temperature and humidity. In summer, coastal areas stay cooler due to trade winds, while interior jungles are humid, with higher temperatures. March and April are the driest months and September is generally the wettest month. Rainfall usually comes in short, sharp bursts and cools the atmosphere a little. The hurricane season is June to October. For those visiting in summer, July is generally drier and more predictable than August.
