Colombia in March

Colombia sits on the equator, so forget traditional seasons. It's all about wet and dry periods, and they vary by region. December through February is peak dry season everywhere - perfect weather but higher prices and crowds. The Caribbean coast (Cartagena, Santa Marta) stays hot year-round, but January and February bring cool ocean breezes. March through May gets sticky and humid. Hurricane season doesn't really affect Colombia, but October and November bring heavy rains. Bogotá's eternal spring climate means 60-70°F year-round, but rainy season (April-May, October-November) turns streets into rivers. June through August offers the most sunshine in the capital. Coffee region weather peaks during harvest season - October through February. You'll see beans drying on patios and can participate in picking. But honestly, any time works here. The mountains create their own weather patterns. Here's the insider tip: visit during shoulder season (June-August). Prices drop, crowds thin out, and you'll have better interactions with locals who aren't burnt out from tourist season.
