Iquitos Weather, When to Go and Iquitos Climate Information
(Iquitos, Loreto, Peru, PE)
Lying in the northernmost part of Peru and within the Amazon region, Iquitos offers visitors a particularly hot and humid climate, with year-round high temperatures and elevated levels of rainfall, which are considerably higher than other most southerly Peruvian destinations, such as Ayacucho, Cusco and Lima.
Iquitos experiences a noticeable wet season, which arrives in November and ends in May, with March and April tending to feature the wettest weather, seeing precipitation levels of around 300 mm / 11.8 inches and 280 mm / 11 inches respectively. In May, Iquitos sees the Amazon River reach its highest levels, steadily dropping some 9 metres / 30 feet or 12 metres / 40 feet to its lowest point in October, and then rising steadily thereafter.
