The weather in Peru is extremely varied depending on the region you visit!

Peru has a wide variety of climates due to its proximity to the equator and tropical influence, along with the towering heights of the Andes Mountains and the strong currents of the Pacific Ocean. The country is usually divided into three principal geographic regions:

Coast – The main characteristic of the coast is dryness – it is mostly desert, but a desert with mild temperatures, and plenty of humidity. Light rain is possible a few months of the year, but the coast is covered in a heavy fog coming from the sea, which brings plenty of mist onto land and often a chilly sensation. During summer (Dec-Apr), the fog disappears and temperatures may exceed 30ºC (86º F), especially in the north.

Mountains – The Andes has two well-marked seasons – the dry season with its endless sunny days from April to October and the wet season between November and March. Day temperatures do not fluctuate much all year, but dry season night temperatures often bring a harsh chill due to frequent frost above 3,500 mts (11,500 ft). Most tourists choose to visit during the dry months. The climate varies greatly depending on altitude. Mountain weather is wild and unpredictable at any time of the year!

Amazon – A tropical climate with two seasons – dry and hot between April – October and a more mild-heat wet season between November – March. High humidity is present all year long.
