Puerto Vallarta Vacations & Travel Tips

When to Go

Perhaps the best time to visit Puerto Vallarta is between April and June when the weather features less rain, and there are fewer tourists.

Looking for whales? Visit from January through March, when you’ll also find lower temperatures in the delightful mid-70s F. Nights can be cooler during these months, dropping into the 60s.

The hottest temperatures occur from June through October, reaching the mid-90s. Fewer cruise ships arrive during the summer months of July through September, which may be a factor if you are considering a cruise vacation, or looking to avoid those who are.

Region: Puerto Vallarta & Riviera Nayarit
