- The warm season (December-May) offers temperatures up to 86°F (30°C) and crystal-clear waters of 86°F (25°C), with perfect underwater visibility for snorkeling and diving. During this season, sea turtles nest (January-March), and vegetation becomes exuberant with sporadic rains.
- Dry season (June-November) with temperatures of 64.4°F – 75.2°F (18°C-24°), cloudy skies, and ideal conditions for hiking and viewing abundant marine life, especially sea lions, sharks, and manta rays.
