Daylight Saving Time in Mexico

By , About.com GuideMarch 12, 2010

Follow me on:

Daylight Saving Time begins in the United States and Canada this weekend but here in Mexico we won't be setting our clocks forward until the first week of April. So make a note if you'll be traveling to Mexico this month - there will be an extra hour difference in time. Known as el horario de verano, Daylight Saving time has been observed in Mexico since 1996, and is observed from the first Sunday in April to the last Sunday in October.

Actually in the Pacific timezone, there is an hour less difference! Most of Mexico is only 1 hour ahead instead of two! :)
