Puerto Lopez experiences a tropical savanna climate, characterized by warm temperatures year-round. There's a distinct dry season with sunnier skies and a rainy season that brings higher humidity and occasional downpours, usually heavier in the mornings. The Pacific Ocean moderates temperatures, keeping it from becoming excessively hot.
The prime time to visit Puerto Lopez is from June to October, coinciding with the dry season and the incredible humpback whale migration.
Peak season runs from June through September, driven by the whale watching opportunities and generally drier, sunnier weather. Expect more tourists and slightly higher prices during these months.
The off-season, from roughly November to May, brings warmer temperatures and increased rainfall. While whale sightings are rare, it's a great time for diving and surfing, with fewer crowds and better deals.
