Brazil is a great destination all year round and is made up of a few climatic extremes, none of which are harsh enough to discourage travel to any part of the country at any time of the year. Across the country, the warmest months are November to March, excellent for appreciating New Year and Carnival celebrations. The northeastern coast experiences some rainfall in June and July, but mostly only in the form of afternoon showers. We suggest visiting the Pantanal's during the driest months between April and October, but like in the Amazon, its wetter months offer clear-cut wildlife viewing opportunities and adventures.
