February in Ecuador

Hot and showery in Galápagos, too wet elsewhere

In the Galápagos Islands, this is a hot month with some showery weather. Winds are very light at this time of year, which means that the water is calm. The water temperatures are at their highest now, which makes it a lovely time to snorkel and swim without a wetsuit. In the Andes, February tends to be the wettest month – you can get away with spending a day or two in Quito but the rest of the highlands are a bit of a write off. In the Amazon, this month sees some of the most sustained rainfall – it is not the rainiest month but it is perhaps the most persistently wet.
