Puerto Vallarta Weather

Puerto Vallarta Weather – A tropical climate
Puerto Vallarta has a typical tropical climate with year round temperatures reaching the consistently agreeable level of 30C. February, March and April are the least cloudy months, and therefore provide the most pleasant for a holiday due to the distinct lack of rainfall. The climate in Puerto Vallarta is one which lures many visitors during the winter months as there is far less rain during this time coupled with a guarantee of hot sunshine.

Weather In Puerto Vallarta – Winters holidays are good
Puerto Vallarta has a distinct wet and dry seasonal variation, with the rainy season lasting from mid June right through until October and most of the downpour occurring between July and September. South westerly winds approaching Puerto Vallarta are often weakened as they pass over Cabo Corriente and so even during the rainy season, the weather in Puerto Vallarta tends to be mild compared to other areas along the Mexican Pacific coast.

Puerto Vallarta Weather – Holiday in spring for the best weather
By some distance, August is the wettest time for a Puerto Vallarta holiday, with an average 14 days of rain. Therefore, a traditional package holiday in the summer months may not always be the best time to visit, despite the fact that the storms are generally over within a few minutes. Occasional tropical storms will bring thunderstorms in November, though the month is usually dry. Hurricanes seldom strike Puerto Vallarta.
