Cancún in £290s-£350s rtn

Sure, the price is mega cheap, but let's talk facts...

As you probably know by now, TUI loves to slash the prices of their short notice fares, but these trips are a little different. These dates fall juuust at the very start of the low, wet season.

What does that mean exactly? Well, on the plus side, you'll still get plenty of sunshine, the sea will be bathtub-water-warm and there'll be fewer crowds. On the downside, the humidity is up, and you may run into a few tropical downpours.

We'd advise planning your beach time and ruin rambling for the mornings, since they tend to be dry and sunny. And always bring an emergency poncho for any spontaneous showers.

Although serious storms are unlikely this early into the wet season, it's also worth getting a decent travel insurance just in case.
