When is the best time to go to Santa Monica?
The best time to visit Santa Monica, Baja California, Mexico, is during the dry season, which runs from November to May.

During these months, you'll experience pleasant temperatures, typically ranging from 20°C to 28°C, with minimal rainfall. This makes it ideal for enjoying the beaches and outdoor activities without the humidity or the higher chance of tropical storms that can occur during the summer and early autumn. The ocean temperatures are also very comfortable for swimming and water sports.

For those looking for a more relaxed trip, without the peak season crowds, late November and early December, or late April and May, are excellent choices. The weather remains superb, but you'll find fewer visitors and often better value on accommodation and flights. This period is particularly suitable for couples seeking a peaceful getaway with plenty of sunshine.

Families often find the spring break period (March-April) appealing due to school holidays, though it can be busier.
Can I cancel my hotel reservation on Expedia?
Many Expedia hotel reservations are refundable, provided that you cancel before the hotel's cancellation deadline − this is often within 24 to 48 hours of your scheduled arrival. If you have a non-refundable booking, it might still be possible to receive a refund if you cancel it within 24 hours of booking. Be sure to check your booking confirmation for the exact cancellation policy. For maximum flexibility, use our 'Fully refundable property' filter during your search to find the right Santa Monica hotel for you.
