Mexico has widely different climate regions, so there is always someplace wonderful to explore. The best time to visit Mexico is any time of the year because there’s a place in Mexico for every season. Where and when you go depends on the type of activity you want to do. Throughout most of Mexico, the temperatures are mild year-round. Northern Mexico might get snow and chilly temperatures in the wintertime, but other parts of Mexico, even high-altitude locations, rarely see snow.The tropical parts of Mexico, located from Oaxaca and east across the Yucatán Peninsula to the Caribbean coast, have rainfall every month (minimum = 40 mm (1 in)) and warm-hot temperatures year-round (average temperatures = 18°C (64°F)).The driest regions, located in the Baja Peninsula and north-central Mexico, and the temperate regions of central Mexico typically see seasonal rains between June and September/October. The dry regions of the north are the only places in Mexico that can get frost and freezing temperatures during the winter months, especially near the Texas border. The winter temperatures of central Mexico may drop down to almost freezing but typically warm up as the sun rises.
