The Best Season for a Todos Santos Elopement
A Baja desert coast with a mild, dry high season and a hot, humid low one, plus whales offshore in winter. When the desert and the Pacific are at their most beautiful.
You assume Baja is warm and dry all year.
The desert coast has a genuinely mild season and a fierce one, and winter brings the whales.
Todos Santos has a mild dry window and a hot humid one, and the season shapes the whole feel of the day.

November through May is the pleasant window: warm, dry days, cool evenings, reliable sun, and the humpback whales passing offshore from roughly December to March. It is the most comfortable and dependable time, and the one I plan most Todos Santos elopements around.

The hot season
June through October brings heat and humidity, with the small chance of a late-season tropical storm, though the desert stays dramatic and the surf is biggest. It is quieter and cheaper, and I plan the timing around the cooler early and late hours.
Pick the mild window if you can, then hand me the date. As your Elopement Curator I plan the day around the season and the light, coordinate the ceremony, and both shoot and film it. Twelve years and 240+ couples in, the mild months, with whales offshore, are the ones I recommend for Todos Santos.
