Weather in Panama City

It's hot all year round in Panama City, so you can come at any time – flight prices remain roughly the same. Theoretically, the dry season is December to April and so is the best time, but even in the other months of the year you're unlikely to get all-day rain. If you can time your visit with the annual Carnaval, which takes place at the end of February or beginning of March, you won't regret it.
