Forecasting Your Riviera Maya Vacation
With the verdant Yucatan peninsula and always-stunning Caribbean Sea as its surroundings, the Riviera Maya area is a good vacation option any time of the year. The average annual temperature is an ideal 85 degrees and rain, while most common from June to August, tends to be fleeting. The Riviera's rainforest climate is naturally humid but with steady ocean temperatures, you can always take a dip to beat the heat.
