Spring and fall are tourist low seasons in BA and are the best times to visit. Hot summer nights, however, make for a wonderful experience. There are year-round festivals celebrating everything from fashion to dance to wine, though springtime sees the lion's share of these events. If you're here during winter, nights can drop to bone-chilling cold, so bring a warm jacket.
The climate in BA varies from pleasant to oppressive. Late spring (October and November) and autumn (March to May) bring hospitable weather with temperatures averaging 24°C (75°F) during the day. In summer, the mercury has been known to hit a scorching 40°C (104°F) - a good time to head for the coastal resorts. Rainfall is to be expected throughout the year, but it's far from torrential.
