Question 4

When is the best time to sail around La Paz?

Accepted Answer

Sailing conditions in La Paz vary by season but remain appealing year-round.  For optimal sailing, the best time to sail in Mexico is between November and April, in winter (high season). You expect dry weather, temperatures of around 26ºC / 79ºF, and steady north-westerly winds of around 10–15 knots, occasionally stronger during “Nortes,” bringing more spirited sailing, and catch glimpses of whales and whale sharks. In summer, conditions are hotter with lighter, more variable winds and generally calm seas, sometimes influenced by the local Coromuel breeze. While summer overlaps with the tropical season, most storms pass south, and the protected cruising grounds, straightforward navigation, and sandy anchorages make La Paz a rewarding destination in both seasons.
