Not really, in each season you will find different landscapes. If you travel during the rainy season, you are likely to find beautiful reflecting pools and more fauna. But this will not take away from the beauty of the place during the dry season months. In the dry season you can see the salt extraction process and a landscape with greater horizons due to the low presence of clouds.
