Galapagos Weather

There are two seasons in the islands:

The hot season from December to May when humidity is high and average temperatures are in the 80s F (26 - 30 C).

And the dry season from June to November. There may be occasional showers, but the days are generally hot and sunny.


 

From June to November, the dry season appears, you can expect cool winds, occasionally bringing with them a light misty-type drizzle called garúa.

Temperatures average in the 70s F (20 - 24 C) during the day and lower at night.

For those of you who would like to Snorkel in Galapagos I recommend to bring a shortie wet suit, since the Galapagos waters cool down to temperatures that range in the 60s F (18 - 20 C).

As you can see Galapagos weather is great and favorable to visit for most of the year mainly because of its latitudinal advantage.
