Best Time to Visit Mexico
Mexico, being a large country, has regional variations but there is no bad time to visit. The weather on both coasts tends to be warm to hot throughout the year allowing for good beach stays although the best time is between October and May. On higher ground such as Mexico City, it can be chilly at night in the winter. Overall, there is no rain between December and February and this is the mildest period. The wet season begins in the south in May and lasts until October. January to March are the months to visit Baja California to see the visiting whales.
The busiest seasons are Christmas, Easter and during the summer months when Mexican families like travel and hotels are crowded. Generally, the beach resorts are less busy between December and May. However, these are the months when prices are at their peak. Mexico City and the interior are the exceptions.
