Weather in Cozumel
The weather in Cozumel makes it one of the most beautiful places you’ll find on the south-eastern side of Mexico. Bordered by the blue waters of the Caribbean Sea, we can find this little patch of paradise off Playa del Carmen. Home to the spectacular Mesoamerican Reef, Cozumel thrives under a sub-tropical savanna climate throughout the year and experiences regular rainfall.
A wet season unfolds from June until November, while January to May gives way to hot and dry weather. Heavy rains are a regular seasonal guest, often pounding the island with sudden and outbursts of rain. Therefore, we recommend packing an umbrella and a thin raincoat to handle the surprise outbursts throughout the year!
