Mexico is a tropical treasure with magnificent beaches, historic sites and delicious food.
The bucket list location is great all year round; however, it makes for an incredible winter sun escape.

The best time to visit Mexico is during the dry season, between December and April, when temperatures can reach highs of 32C degrees.
During these months, you’ll likely find full days of sunshine and virtually zero chance of rain.
However, it’s worth keeping in mind that the coldest months are from December to early February.
That being said, temperatures still average between 23 and 28C degrees.
The wet season runs from the end of May until October.
There are also a couple of events to keep in mind if you want to experience the culture fully.
For instance, Cinco De Mayo (on May 5) is a holiday celebrating the Mexican victory over French forces at the Battle of Puebla.
You can expect street food, parties, parades and plenty of fun.
On the other hand, if you’re after a surfing holiday, you should head to Los Cabos between November and April, as it’s the busiest surfing season.
While Cancun’s surf season runs from June to November, so keep that in mind if you want to hit the waves.
Also, every spring, Cancun hosts the Inception Music Festival, the largest Spring Break event in the world.
The event lasts for a whole month in some of Cancun’s top locations, with incredible parties and events throughout the day and night.
