August weather in playa del carmen/cancun?

Question

going there in a couple weeks. anyone from there/been there, know what weather is like this time of year?

Answer 1

Very hot and humid!  I would pass on a trip to Chitzen Itza unless your body is ready for 110 degrees and rain ever 15 minutes.  I did that when I was 15, so I was fine but older people on the tour got pretty sick.  Drink tons of water and use lots of suntan lotion (the sand reflects the sun).

Answer 2

The average high temperature for Cancun in August is 90 deg. and the average low is 77 deg.

Answer 3

It's nice and hot, humid. It usually rains once a day, just a for a few minutes. If there is a tropical storm offshore, it will rain for a few days, but it only happened to me 1 of the 5 times when I was in Cancun in August. Either way, there's plenty to do and see, and a beautiful culture to enjoy. Have fun!

Answer 4

It is hot and humid...bring sunblock and lots of deodorant ;-)
