    What’s the weather like in Cancun in January?

    Cancún’s one of Mexico’s best holiday destinations, and has tropical weather with high temperatures all year round. This is because it’s at the tip of the Yucatán Peninsula on the Caribbean Sea. You'll get lots of sun if you're going in January, which is a great time to visit as it’s in the dry season. This is from November to April, so January’s one of the year’s driest months. If it does rain it’s usually just a short shower.
