When to Visit

Though Mexico is a year-round destination, the best time to visit depends largely on your interests and the region you’re visiting. Generally, the dry season between December to April offers excellent weather and is perfect for sunny beach holidays and exploring historical sites. However, keep in mind this period also sees larger crowds and higher prices.

The off-peak season, from May to November, often sees less visitors along with the occasional rain shower. For those who don't mind the odd downpour, you can benefit from off-peak rates and fewer tourists, making it an ideal time to explore Mexico at your own pace.
