When To Travel
December – April?
Yes Please!
The best time to visit Mexico is in the dry season, December to April. Temperatures are in the 80’s throughout this time and are perfect for laying out by the beach or exploring the area. This is also the perfect time to go if you are looking to save a little money. (Except for the week between Christmas and New Year’s).
May – October?
Perhaps Not…
A not-so-ideal time to travel to Mexico is during the wet season, May to October. These are the months when it is rainier and weather can be unpredictable but you can still have a good time during these months. During this time, it tends to be more expensive to travel to areas such as Cancun, Tulum, and other popular beaches.
