I have been four times; once in February, once in April, once near the beginning of November, and once near the end of November.
I am from the Houston area and live in high temperatures and humidity from March until October, so I am no wimp, but when I go on vacation I want pleasant temperatures and not what I experience at home in the summer.
Having said that, I will say that April was getting a little too warm for me, and even November was too warm at times. (i.e. We broke a sweat. I would still go back during those months though.)
February was absolutely fabulous! It was wonderfully mild, and neither too warm nor too cool. The temperature was at that perfect point where it never even enter our minds the entire time we were there. We never broke a sweat. The water temperature was a bit cool, but still tolerable to snorkle and dive.
I'll bet December, January, and March are similar in temperature.
We are having AC withdrawals, so my husband and I are going to break our resolve not to go during the summer months and are heading to SP in August for our anniversary. I will post my experience when I get back.
After reading many postings about mosquitos and power outages this summer, I will add those, along with higher temperatures and humidity to the list of things I am praying will not be as bad as all that.
We love SP so much that even these things, along with rainy season and hurricane season, can't hold us from coming back this August. (Both rainy season and hurricane season end in November I believe, so I guess that is why high season is from November to April.)
(I would love some advice from some locals and expats regarding some of the things I have mentioned above.)
Thanks!
