Mexico is one of those rare holiday destinations that actually have a preferable climate in winter. With the rainy season running from May to October, travelling in the height of summer can see you caught in many a downpour. And wet sun loungers are fun for no-one.

For winter holidays in the sun, Mexico really offers up the goods. From October till March you’ll find temperatures at a minimum of 20 degrees C, with amazing highs hovering around the 30 mark.

One thing’s for sure, there’s no danger of you coming back from a winter sun holiday in Mexico without a great tan.

With a flight time of 12 hours, Mexico is definitely a long-haul destination from the UK. However, surprisingly affordable holiday deals to Mexico can often be found.

All inclusive is a popular option, and the standards of accommodation, food and drink tend to be high across the board. A typical four star hotel in the popular Mexican resort of Cancun will offer a la carte dining, cocktails and watersports, all included in the up front price of your holiday. This means that you can save your spending money for some special excursions to really make your holiday extra memorable.

You could, for example, choose to scuba dive in the stunning underwater world at Cozumel National Marine Park. Or, those with an interest in history will find the Chichen Itza Mayan temple to be supremely fascinating.

If the soft, white sand beaches of Cancun aren’t enough for you, why not take a day trip to Tulum to enjoy one of the most breathtaking tropical beaches in the world?

Families can enjoy the wonderful XCarat eco park; perhaps swimming with dolphins if really lucky.

Mexico has so much to offer as an amazing winter sun destination, so why not book a value all inclusive package for this winter and enjoy some fabulous winter sunshine?
