The truth is, any time is the best time to visit Brazil. November to March can bring the hottest weather, plus flocks of tourists that come to enjoy astounding beaches and take part in carnivals like Festa da Iemanjá or Salvador da Bahia. April and May can be pleasant as well, especially in Pantanal, where you can spot unique wildlife even in the wettest months. June and July are high time for visiting the Green Coast, with its cooler evenings but warm sea. Early winter on the Northeast coast is known for its afternoon showers, but they won't spoil your plans, as they are usually sharp and short. August through October is deemed to be a brilliant season for exploring the streets of Rio or leafing through Pantanal's flora and fauna, where the temps are just starting to rise.
