Cancun for your next vacation? These are the best months in which you can travel to its beaches
Cancun is one of the main tourist destinations in Mexico, for national and foreign travelers. It is impossible not to fall in love with the charm of its beaches with white sand and turquoise sea.
Being a sought-after vacation destination, many times the price of flights and accommodation can become an obstacle to visiting it, but at Destinations we tell you which are the cheapest months to travel to this paradise in the Mexican Caribbean.
When is the best month to go to Cancun?
Cancún is located southeast of Mexico, in the Mexican Caribbean. Before traveling we must take into account three seasons that influence the cost of plane tickets, the availability of hotels and the presence of tourists on the beaches.
Let’s start with the wet season which runs from the end of May to mid-August. In this period, the climate is warmer, reaching 33 °C, and there is a high probability of sargassum.
October and November is the peak of hurricane season. Although the costs of flights usually go down, there is a greater presence of storms, so the weather will not let you enjoy the experience 100%.
So when is it best to travel? According to the Kayak platform, the cheapest month to fly from Mexico City to Cancun is September, with an average price of $1,590 for one-way flights and $3,180 for a round trip.
On the other hand, the most ex
pensive months are December and March, in which the average cost of tickets is $3,704 and $2,655 one-way.
Since the weather conditions are quite favorable in September, this itself attracts many tourists. Go City’s suggestion is to buy tickets for the trip at least 3 weeks in advance and the same goes for hotel reservations.
Tips to get cheap flights
In addition to keeping in mind the season in which you want to visit Cancun, Kayak recommends flying at less common times to keep the cost of tickets even lower.
Another option is to create alerts about price drops on online trackers. Through a notification, these sites let you know when the ticket you previously reviewed has a more reasonable cost.
