  • Think about your vibe (laid-back, luxe, adventurous?)

  • Look for adults-only or honeymoon-specific resorts

  • Ask about honeymoon packages and upgrades

Best Time To Go On A Honeymoon

Mexico + Caribbean Edition

There are so many details that can go into picking the best time to go on a honeymoon. Most want to go right after they get married, but if you choose to go to the Caribbean and Mexico you might want to consider timing it right. Picking the right month can mean fewer crowds, better weather, and unforgettable romantic moments. If you're dreaming of a honeymoon in Mexico or the Caribbean, this guide breaks down the best time to go on a honeymoon for each destination — so you can plan with confidence and excitement.

🌞 Why Timing Matters for Your Honeymoon

Your honeymoon is a once-in-a-lifetime trip, and the last thing you want is to be caught in stormy weather or miss out on romantic activities due to crowds. 

Here’s why timing makes a difference:

  • Weather: Sunny skies and warm breezes set the perfect tone.

  • Crowds: Avoiding peak travel periods = more privacy.

  • Pricing: Travel smarter with off-season or shoulder-season deals.

  • Activities: Certain tours and wildlife experiences are seasonal.

🏝️ Best Months to Honeymoon in Top Mexico & Caribbean Destinations

1. Cancun & Riviera Maya, Mexico

  • Best Time: November to April

  • Why: These months offer dry, sunny weather — perfect for beach lounging, cenote swims, and romantic jungle dinners.

  • Bonus: February and March are ideal for whale shark and sea turtle sightings (and fewer mosquitos!).

2. Tulum, Mexico

  • Best Time: Late October to March

  • Why: Less humid, better beach conditions, and fewer tourists than high summer. Perfect for boho-luxe couples wanting to explore ruins, beaches, and boutique resorts.

3. Cabo San Lucas, Mexico

  • Best Time: December to April

  • Why: Expect sunshine, calm seas, and prime whale-watching season (January to March). Cabo offers a more desert-meets-beach feel, great for spa days and oceanfront dining.

4. Jamaica

  • Best Time: December to April

  • Why: It’s the dry season — think golden sunsets, lush greenery, and reggae vibes with no rain interruption. Resorts in Montego Bay, Negril, and Ocho Rios shine during this time.

5. St. Lucia

  • Best Time: May to June

  • Why: The weather is still great, but the crowds have thinned and prices dip. It’s also the perfect time for hiking the Pitons or soaking in natural hot springs.

6. The Bahamas

  • Best Time: Mid-December to April

  • Why: The cooler dry season offers ideal beach weather. Bonus: You’ll miss the Atlantic hurricane season (which runs June–November).

💰 Save Money with the Shoulder Season

If you're looking to balance dreamy weather and dreamy prices, consider the shoulder season — just before or after peak travel times.
May & early June and late October offer:

  • Lower airfare and resort rates

  • Great weather (before the summer heat or hurricane risk peaks)

  • Fewer crowds = more romance

💑 Romantic Seasonal Experiences to Plan Around

  • Cenote swims in Mexico: Best in cooler months (Nov–Feb)

  • Sunset catamaran sails in the Caribbean: Available year-round, best during dry season

  • Whale watching in Cabo: January–March

  • Sea turtle nesting (Riviera Maya): May–October

✨ Final Tips for Planning the Perfect Honeymoon

  • Book early for peak season travel (Dec–April) to lock in the best rates and room categories.

  • Travel insurance is a must if you're honeymooning during shoulder or hurricane season.

  • Consider flexible travel dates to catch the best weather and rates.
