When is the best time to visit Brazil?
Rio de Janeiro from Sugarloaf Mountain

The best time to visit Brazil is between November and March. These are the warmest months across the country, with temperatures between 27°C and 33°C — perfect for enjoying New Year and Carnival celebrations.

However, Brazil is a year-round destination made up of several climatic extremes, none of which are severe enough to deter travel to any part of the country at any given time.

The northeastern coast experiences some rain in June and July, but usually only in the form of afternoon showers.

Brazil is home to the world鈥檚 largest tropical wetland, the Pantanal. The area's driest months are between April and October, when temperatures sit between 30°C and 35°C. However, like in the Amazon, its wetter months offer distinct wildlife spotting opportunities. You could see jaguars, hyacinth macaws and capybara, to name a few.
