Weather
The Iquitos region is very tropical and has a warm and humid climate throughout the year with abundant rainfall between November and April. The average temperature at this time is 26°C, although it can reach 36°C. During this period it is advised that you bring a pair of Wellington boots as some of the jungle trails become small rivers.
The dry season runs from April through to October and daily temperatures can reach as high as 35°C. From time to time however, there are cold fronts that extend from the South Atlantic and drop temperatures to as much as 15°C during the day and 13°C at night. It is often thought that the dry season is the best season to visit Iquitos as the rivers are lower exposing the beaches, and the jungle routes are more accessible. |
