When to go, and when not to
The strongest months for a visit are January, October, November, and December. January brings a high near 20.5C and a low near 11.7C with only 27mm of rain and 7.5 hours of sunshine a day, while November offers a high around 25.2C, a low around 17.6C, just 31mm of rain, and 7.7 hours of sunshine. October and December follow a similar pattern of moderate temperatures and light rainfall, which is why all four months stand out as the best combination of comfort and dry weather.
These same months also make up the peak season, so sights and transport are likely to be busier than during quieter stretches of the year. The trade-off for going during the off-season months of May, July, and August is heavier rain and higher heat, with July reaching a high of 33.1C and September bringing 403mm of rain, the wettest month on record here, making the peak months a more comfortable but more crowded choice.
