When is the best time to visit Xel-Ha Park?

Cancun is sunny all year round, so go whenever you have the time to plan a vacation! Even over the winter months, expect highs of around 84°F and lows of 70°F.

However, Cancun's busiest period is generally between December and April because it's the perfect winter getaway! So, while you may be missing the cold, you'll likely find Xel-Ha Park all the busier for it.
