With a climate as diverse as its tequila selection, Mexico's weather offers a taste of every season, with a side of salsa, of course.

Picture this: Mexico weather in the summer, where the temperatures can sizzle up into the 30s in some places. It's like the sun's throwing a fiesta, and everyone's invited! It's the perfect time for a siesta in the shade, a splash in the sea, or even a spicy street food tour.

But what about winter, you ask? Well, it's more like a British summer, with temperatures staying in the comfortable 20s. Imagine swapping your snow boots for sandals, and mulled wine for margaritas - sounds like a win, doesn't it?

Spring and autumn in Mexico? They're like a cool mango on a hot day. Warm, but not too hot, with a nice cooling breeze to keep things fresh.
