• Mosquitoes are less active, but still bring repellent for evenings

Rainy season (May–November)

Higher humidity and warmer temperatures with afternoon showers—but rain typically passes quickly and tropical storms are brief, not day-long.

• Add a lightweight rain jacket or compact poncho
• Bring quick-dry sandals and clothing that recover fast from rain
• Anti-frizz hair products help with humidity
• Insect repellent becomes essential with increased mosquito activity
