Peak season: November–March
Warm, sunny days and cool evenings make this ideal for beaches, deserts and sightseeing. It's also the busiest and priciest period, with festivals, sports events and perfect outdoor weather.
Shoulder months: April & October
Still pleasant but warming up, these months offer a good balance of decent weather and softer prices before and after the peak crowds.
Summer: June–September
Very hot and humid, but this is when hotel rates drop sharply and indoor attractions, malls and waterparks come into their own. Great for a budget-friendly luxury trip if you don't mind the heat.
