Best time to visit
Cooler months are easiest for outdoor planning
- Late fall through early spring generally brings lower humidity and comfortable outdoor conditions.
- Summer is hot, humid, and storm-prone; start exposed activities early and keep afternoon plans flexible.
- Busy winter and holiday periods reward advance reservations for popular tours and timed attractions.
Travel tips
- Group each day by geography instead of crossing the region repeatedly.
- Use early mornings for exposed outdoor activities and waterfront time.
- Check park, marine, and weather conditions before nature-focused plans.
- Treat nearby municipalities and protected areas as separate destinations with their own access rules.
