Best time to visit

Average time to visit

Miami is a year-round destination but summer can be hot and humid with thunderstorms rolling in at 3pm or 4pm. Ideal conditions exist between December and May, when temperatures average between 16°C and 30°C, and average rainfall is a mere 2.14in per month. August is both the rainiest and hottest month – and there’s always the chance of hurricanes during the season from June to November.

The Florida Keys are a year-round destination with balmy winters, but summer can be hot and humid. The best time to visit is in March and April when it is warm and sunny, before the weather begins to get too hot. Hurricanes and other less serious tropical storms can strike Florida any time in the summer up to the end of November, however the risk is greatest between August and October.
