What is the climate like in Peru in July? |
Travel Info What is the climate like in Peru in July? Travel Tips It's winter there. But like the answer above says, the actual temperature will depend on what region you're in - coast, mountains, or jungle. Lima, on the coast, will be cloudy and kind of cold, probably in the 40's or lower 50's. It's a wet kind of cold, though, so you'll want jackets and sweaters. Cusco and other cities in the mountains will be quite cold. Make sure you pack layers, and be ready to dress very warmly. Moyobamba and other cities in the jungle will have pretty nice weather. The jungle gets intolerably hot in the summer, and it can even be hard to be there in the spring and fall. So winter would be a good time to visit it, if you're looking for comfortable weather.

Other Travel Tips There is no single climate in Peru - the deserts, jungles, mountain villages and coastal cities are each under the influence of different natural forces. And while there is no perfect time to see them all, February and March are fairly tolerable everywhere. The rainy season (a misnomer, really - it rarely rains) is June-September in Lima (humidity can be as high as 98% during this time) and November-March in the mountains. North and east highlands are subject to heavy rain from October-April. Along the Amazon, it's always hot and humid (it is a jungle, after all). Be sure to take a sweater (or something heavier) if you're going to Cuzco and Machu Picchu. The greatest number of foreign tourists visit Peru July-September - which is also when Peruvians take their vacations. It's best to avoid this time, as prices are high and hotels are crowded. 220 volts , sorry :P |
