During these months, you can expect plenty of sunshine and very little rain, making it ideal for enjoying the beaches, rock climbing, and boat trips. The sea is usually calm and clear, great for swimming and snorkelling. While it's the most popular time, it's also when you'll find the most options for tours and activities readily available.

For those looking to avoid the busiest crowds but still enjoy good weather, the shoulder months of November and April are excellent choices. You'll often find slightly fewer people and potentially better value on accommodation and flights, while still benefiting from the dry conditions.

If you're planning a trip focusing on active pursuits like rock climbing or sea kayaking, the consistent dry weather during this period ensures the best conditions for these outdoor activities.
