Field notes

Tropical Pacific surf coast — meaningfully drier than the Yucatán with a defined wet/dry pattern. Dry season (November–May) is bone-dry sunny with virtually zero rainfall; wet season (June–October) brings afternoon thunderstorms with September the wettest month. Hurricane risk is real on the Pacific coast (June–November) but lower than the Caribbean side. Sea-water temperatures stay swimmable year-round (24–27°C); the dry-winter window has the largest swells.
