Best Time to Visit
Visit during the dry season (November to April) when seas are calm and weather is perfect for beach play. Aim for weekday lunchtimes to avoid weekend crowds, or late afternoon for stunning sunset views while dining. Early mornings are quietest if you have very young children.
What to Know
