Best Time to Fly to Brasilia
The climate in Brasilia doesn’t feature particularly extreme conditions. Temperatures range from about 62°F to 82°F and seldom go any higher. In winter it can get as cold as 33°F and in mid-summer (September- October) 93 degrees is possible, but short-lived. The dry season occurs in August and September. At this time the green areas become brown and dry and desert-like. This is, however, the time of the year when Brasilia yields its most spectacular sunsets. May and June are still fresh and green and it’s not too hot in the city, so this is an ideal time to visit.
The heat of summer (September and October) is a deterrent to some travelers who prefer to avoid the city when it is very dry, however others flock to the area during summer. The winter season with its rainy days, is off-peak for the city, so this time of the year is likely to yield the cheapest deals.
