When to go, and when not to
April, May, October, and November stand out as the best months to visit, combining milder high and low temperatures with more sunshine hours per day than the winter months. October in particular pairs a comfortable high near 23.5C with strong sunshine, while April and November offer similar balance, making these months the most reliable stretch for outdoor sightseeing.
These same four months make up the peak season, so travelers should expect more visitors and higher demand for lodging compared with the quieter off-season months of January, February, and July. Summer brings its own trade-offs, with June bringing heavy rain of 337mm and July and August reaching the hottest highs of the year at 34.1C and 34.5C, so travelers who dislike heat, humidity, or heavy rain may prefer to avoid that stretch entirely.
