Due to the diversity of areas in the Country the nature offers us an extensive range of climatic variants because that one finds in Peru almost all of the climates of the world.

The climates of the Peru can be divided in the following way:
Coast Region (Lima, Trujillo, Chiclayo, Nazca, Paracas, Ica):
From April to September is the coldest period. It is hot in the summer mornings and between the end of December and March the sky is clear. During the night, it can become somewhat cool, thereby making it necessary to wear a jacket.

Mountain Region (Andes: Cusco, Puno, Cajamarca, Huaraz, Arequipa):
There are two distinct seasons, marked by the presence or lack of rain. The rainy season is between November and March, with frequent and heavy rainfall which can last some hours, especially during the afternoon. The altitude and the almost constant presence of clouds avoid the temperatures becoming too hot. Although it is summer in the southern hemisphere. The dry season is characterized by a blue sky during the day. The temperatures remain comfortable while there is sunshine, but it is generally cool at sunrise and sunset.

Rainforest Jungle (Puerto Maldonado, Tarapoto, Iquitos):
As in the High Andes (mountains), there are also two seasons: one from November to May, during which it rains practically every day, for various hours, and another from June to October, known as the dry season, when heavy but short periods of rain can fall. The climate of the jungle is essentially characterized by humidity that varies from between 80% to 100%, depending on the seasons, and the temperature, which varies little, is on average about 28ºC.
