Cancún and San Juan
The verdict for September

Peak storm risk
+Lowest prices of the year.
–Wettest weeks and peak hurricane risk.
September is cheap and quiet, but it is the peak of hurricane season and one of the wettest months.

Peak hurricane risk
+The cheapest rates.

Scores and crowd levels are my own judgement; temperatures are monthly averages. Higher scores are better: quieter, cheaper and more pleasant.
