08Editor's notes

What the numbers don't tell you

June opens hurricane season, with hot, humid days around 32 °C, afternoon storms on about twenty days and the sargassum season at its peak on the Hotel Zone beaches, though resorts clear their stretches daily. Whale sharks arrive off Isla Mujeres and Holbox, the main reason to come. Rates are low, and all-inclusive deals are plentiful. The sea is around 29 °C.

The turtle nesting continues, with night releases at some resorts. The cenotes are the refuge from the humidity. The Mexican school holidays begin in July. Daylight passes thirteen hours at the solstice. For the summer holidays, the whale shark peak and the warm sea, see July.
