Weather

Weather shifts through genuine seasons here, from February's cool stretch to August's warmth, with rain a little heavier around January and lighter around August — real variation, but nothing as sharp as a true monsoon or Mediterranean dry season. In August, expect highs around 33°C with rain on roughly 7 days of the month.

Things to Do

Wildlife-spotting river cruises and jungle lodges in the Amazon basin are the region's main draw.

Local Cuisine

Try tacacá and Amazonian river fish, distinctive to the region.
