Conversely, the prime off season is December through January, when the weather conditions are pleasant, the crowds are not as bad and you can really take in historical sites and enjoy the local culture and cuisine at a leisurely pace. You should always book as far ahead as possible but stay aware that trying to book last minute during the peak season may be more difficult. The thriftiest seasons to visit are in the summer and fall, mainly because the temperatures are at their highest and it is also during hurricane season, which means the heavier rainfall causes it to also be the most humid seasons.
