Puerto Vallarta Weather & Best Time to Visit

Puerto Vallarta weather offers a tropical climate, much like Hawaii, year-round. With over 300 sunny days a year and average temperatures ranging from 60 to 95, you’re pretty much guaranteed outdoor weather conducive to sunbathing, snorkeling, and swimming. There is a “rainy season” from mid-June through mid-October that can bring hours of afternoon rainfall, but that is the perfect opportunity to experience Puerto Vallarta spas, museums, and shopping.

Puerto Vallarta in fall: It’s one of the most popular times to book travel to Puerto Vallarta, with whale watching in full swing. You’ll find the perfect temperatures – cool evenings in the 60s, and daytime temperatures in the mid-70s. There is not much rain at the tail-end of the wet season. Popular autumn attractions include the Art & Market Marina, which runs from October through May, as well as Dia de los Muertos, the Puerto Vallarta Cup (beach soccer), Mexican Independence Day, and the Taco Fair.
Puerto Vallarta in winter: It’s still high season in Puerto Vallarta, with snowbirds flocking in from the Northern United States, Canada, and parts of Europe. Temperatures range from 65 to 85 in the early part of winter, with daytime averages dipping down to 72 in January. Puerto Vallarta rarely gets below 56 degrees, and the average water temperature in January is 77 degrees, so you can enjoy a swim. Travelers love to visit Puerto Vallarta in the winter for the Sailfish & Marlin Tournament, the Gourmet Festival, LuminaFest fireworks, Taco Festival, and the Feast of Our Lady of Guadalupe.
Puerto Vallarta in spring: With the exception of Easter week, spring is considered a swing season, with smaller crowds and reasonable prices. Temperatures range from 70-80. May Fest celebrations take place, with concerts, art showings, and athletic activities all month long. The Festival de Pascua music festival, Vallarta Pride festival, Restaurant Week, Los Mangos Market, International Film Festival, and the Vallarta Bird Festival are all reasons to visit in spring.
Puerto Vallarta in summer: The deepest discounts are found from July through September, when temperatures, humidity, and rainfall peaks. It’s not unusual to see 14 inches of rainfall in September. There is a misconception that activity dies down after Spring Break and Easter in Puerto Vallarta, but insiders know this is a glorious time of year for stormy sunsets and blooming gardens. There’s plenty of shopping, museums, art galleries, and summer specials at the local restaurants during this low-traffic time of year.
