WEATHER

The weather in Iquitos is warm and humid with temperatures of 31°C (88°F) and 21°C (70°F).

The low water season (June-November) and the high water season ( December- May) feature particular differences in the plant and animal life as well as in the climate.

Conditions on the river change with the seasons but each rewards visitors in different ways. During the high water season, the river and estuaries grow, allowing launch boats to venture deeper into the flooded forest. During the low water season, the river recedes and beautiful sandy river beaches are formed.
