Mexico

Pyramids rise and fiestas flare, November to April shines with dry, festive air

24 spots17 speciesFebruary
The best time to visit Mexico is between November and April, when dry days bring Cancún’s beaches and Oaxaca’s ruins to life. With 20°C to 30°C weather, it’s perfect for exploring Chichén Itzá, surfing Puerto Escondido, or tasting tacos in CDMX. For fewer crowds, try October or May.
