May is warm and wet, with high humidity and frequent rain. It's the start of the rainy season, but temperatures are comfortable for exploring. Tourist numbers begin to rise.
Light, quick-dry clothing, a sturdy umbrella, and waterproof sandals. Insect repellent for evenings. A hat for sun protection.
Labour Day holiday (May 1-3) brings crowds; avoid if you dislike busy sites. Rain showers are often short but intense. Keep electronics protected from moisture.
