Every country has an ideal time of year to go there on holiday. You often visit countries with a continental climate in the spring or summer. In the Southern Hemisphere it is summer from December to March and in the Northern Hemisphere it is from June to August. Many countries have a dry and a wet season. If you go very north or very south, the question is whether you should go there in winter. If you want to go skiing, there must of course be snow. If you want to take a sailing holiday or lie on the beach, good weather is a requirement.
