Mexico straddles two climates: one temperate and the other tropical, thereby providing a variety of ambient temperatures and ecosystems that can satisfy almost all travelers. Northern Mexico tends to be dry, with intermittent rainfall, while the southern tropical lowlands have high precipitation. There are two seasons in Mexico: the dry season (late November to early June) and the rainy season (from June to November).
