Climate conditions and crowd levels for each month of the year.
you're in the thick of the wet season, with highs of 21°C (70°F) and lows of 10°C (51°F), and a monthly rainfall total that can reach 147mm. Mornings are often beautiful and that makes the city feel deceptively dry until midday.
continues much the same pattern. Highs of 21°C (69°F), lows of 10°C (50°F), and around 119mm of rain likely across the month. The afternoons are reliably wet but the light on clear mornings can be extraordinary.
marks the beginning of the wet season's retreat. Highs stay at 21°C (70°F), lows at 10°C (50°F), but rainfall drops meaningfully to around 86mm. You'll still get afternoon showers. But they feel less inevitable than in January.
is when Sucre starts to reveal what makes its dry season so appealing. Highs remain 21°C (70°F) but nights cool noticeably to 8°C (47°F), and rainfall falls to just 28mm. The skies begin to clear in a way that feels like a reward for making it through the wet season.
is comfortably dry, with only about 5mm of rain expected across the whole month. Daytime highs reach 21°C (71°F), but evenings drop to 6°C (43°F), so a proper layer becomes necessary after dark. The city feels unhurried and pleasant.
is one of the driest months Sucre sees, with just 3mm of rain and days topping out at 21°C (69°F). The catch is the nights, which drop to 4°C (40°F); cold enough that walking around Sucre's central market area after dinner requires real warmth.
matches June almost precisely: highs of 20°C (69°F), lows of 4°C (39°F), and a similarly negligible 3mm of rain. It's the coldest month of the year in temperature terms, though "cold" in Sucre mostly means bundling up for evenings and mornings rather than suffering through genuine winter.
begins the slow return of warmth, with lows edging back up to 5°C (41°F) and highs at 21°C (71°F). Rainfall ticks up very slightly to 8mm but remains firmly in dry-season territory.
sees Sucre transitioning gently, with highs of 22°C (72°F), lows of 7°C (45°F), and around 25mm of rain. Occasional afternoon clouds building without the sustained downpours of the wet season proper. It's arguably one of the most comfortable months in Sucre.
brings the first real signs of the wet season approaching. Highs reach 23°C (73°F), lows 9°C (48°F), and rainfall climbs to 46mm. The afternoons grow more interesting, with building cumulus clouds over the surrounding hills. But rain is still far from a daily certainty.
in Sucre tips clearly into the wet season's opening phase, with 66mm of rain expected and highs of 23°C (73°F), lows of 10°C (50°F). The city is greener and the surrounding landscape more lush than the dry-season brown.
November accelerates into wet season conditions, with 107mm of rain likely across the month and temperatures holding at highs of 22°C (72°F) and lows of 10°C (50°F). Afternoon rain is increasingly reliable. Mornings stay warm and clear.
