Weather

Weather shifts through genuine seasons here, from January's cool stretch to August's warmth, with rain a little heavier around April and lighter around July — real variation, but nothing as sharp as a true monsoon or Mediterranean dry season. In July, expect highs around 19°C with rain on roughly 5 days of the month.

Things to Do

The Galápagos Islands' unique wildlife and the Andean highlands around Quito and Cotopaxi are the country's headline draws.

Local Cuisine

Try ceviche and locro de papa, an Ecuadorian potato soup.
