Duck Tours South Beach operates year-round, but the most pleasant touring conditions are during Miami's dry season (October through April) when humidity is lower and skies are clearer. Summer months bring heat, humidity, and the possibility of afternoon thunderstorms, which may affect water portions of the tour.
