Because of Peru’s three different zones, the Coast, the Andes, and the Amazon you will find many different climates. 28 of the 32 world’s climates can be experienced in this country. The Andes Mountains and the Humboldt Current contribute largely to these diverse climates. The Coastal climate is subtropical, with very little rainfall occurring. Rainy summers and very dry winters are common in the Andes Mountains, with temperatures ranging from cool to cold. The Amazon eastern lowlands are known for its hot weather and rain because of its Equatorial climate all year round.
