When to go en Argentine ?

Argentina is located in the southern hemisphere; therefore, the seasons are reversed compared to Europe. Our summer corresponds to winter and vice versa. Spring runs from the end of September to the end of December, summer until the end of March. Argentina can be visited all year round, but depending on the region, one season or another can make your stay more enjoyable. Unless you want to ski or are particularly fond of the snow and cold, it is best not to visit Patagonia in the winter

In the northeast, warm in the valleys: humid and warm from December to February, cooler but sunny from April to October. Subtropical for the Grand Chaco and its forest. In Mesopotamia, subtropical in the north, more temperate in the south. For the Cuyo, along the Chilean border, dry and temperate. For the central Sierras (Córdoba), temperate and dry. Oceanic type temperate for the Pampa húmeda, a large region of Buenos Aires. In Patagonia, colder, especially in the south, and permanently windy.

Argentina is located in the southern hemisphere where spring runs from late September to late December, then summer until late March, autumn until late June and winter until late September. The high tourist season is in July. Be careful at certain times of the year, such as during Semana Santa, Holy Week, which precedes Easter, when Argentines are on vacation and hotels are crowded. The month of January corresponds to the Argentinean vacations, so remember to make your accommodation reservations.

In Mesopotamia and Misiones, the rainfall is constant, even more so from December to March, and the summer is particularly hot. July is the best time to visit Iguazú Falls whether you are in Argentina or Brazil. But it is the high tourist season and prices go up. In the northwest, temperatures rise to over 40°C in the summer. Avoid it! The wet season is between November and March, the Andean winter. Buenos Aires and the pampas are sheltered from heavy rains and enjoy a moderate climate, although more humid in the capital and on the coast. Although the temperatures are pleasant, January and February can be very humid. In Patagonia, you will not suffer from the heat! The ideal time to go there is during the summer when the temperatures are the mildest (sometimes 15°C) and the days are long, but bring warm clothes because the weather changes quickly and the winds are violent. In Atlantic Patagonia, the whales of Puerto Madryn can be seen from July to mid-December. The Patagonian winter is not as harsh as one might imagine from Europe and can be an opportunity to ski in the lakes area.
