Weather in august

[Travelmania]

Hello,
We would like to book for august, just wondering about the weather at that time of the year, I'm afraid it would be too warm, too humid, any comments?

It's very hot and very humid in August. For the most part.

Not that I would ever turn down a chance to go to Playa, but......I told myself never, ever again in August.

It was miserably HOT for me!!

Really?? That's even with the nice ocean breeze?

Just sayin',but if a person from Georgia tells you it's hot and humid you probably want to take note

Correct. Feels like Georgia- with an ocean! So I'd much rather be there than here. Stay on the beach as much as possible during the day. It's beyond steamy on the street. Nights are good.

Being on the beach wasn't so much the problem (although it was so hot, I pretty much stayed in the water). It was the other day/night activities that did me in.....shopping, eating, and sightseeing. Most restaurants don't have A/C, therefore, I felt as if I was eating in an oven. I would purposely "browse" in a gift shop that was air conditioned Night time on the beach was perfect!

Last July was tough eating dinner. As mentioned, restaurants don't have A/C, you eat open air and it was pretty darn uncomfy. I would look forward to getting back to the condo and the A/C. I mean it is what it is, if I was eating outside in August in NJ, it would be steamy as well. But I typically don't do that when I'm home. However, I wouldn't let the heat stop me from going in the summer again. If you're at an all inclusive resort, many of their restaurants will have A/C.

Agreed! Hate to admit, but there were a couple of nights I said "uncle" early...just for the comfort of the A/C at the condo.


My ultimate goal is to visit during January/Feb one year!

Just my part Sammy. I'm 6 hours away from both the Atlantic and the Gulf. It's easier to go to Playa!

[Heather]

August is hot. I've always lived without A/C and this is the time of the year when if you have a significant other, you draw a line down the middle of the bed and threaten, under pain of death, that the SO is not to cross that line for any reason. Three showers, fans blowing directly on you, walking only on the shady side of the street, and carrying around a washcloth or hand towel to wipe off your sweat is recommended.

I have only been in Playa July-August and I like it!
