Puerto Plata Province in June

December through April delivers perfect weather – sunny skies, low humidity, and temperatures in the low 80s. This is peak season, so expect higher prices and more crowds at popular spots. May through November brings more heat and humidity, plus afternoon rain showers. But look – this is when you'll find the best deals and fewer tourists clogging up Fortaleza San Felipe. Hurricane season runs June to November, though direct hits stay relatively rare. September and October see the most rain, but it usually comes in quick bursts. Here's what matters: ocean temperatures stay warm year-round, perfect for swimming and water sports. And those trade winds? They keep the heat bearable even during summer months.
