Best Time for the Lima & Peru's North Coast
Sweet spot: May, June, July — computed from NASA POWER climate normals across the route's overnight towns, balancing temperature, rainfall and daylight.
The coast's clearer months — Lima escapes its grey garúa blanket and the surf towns warm up.
Garúa season: Lima sits under mist while the north stays mild — eat your way through it; the food never dips.
