Isla Margarita enjoyed 344 days of sunshine in 2007, with over 94% of the days having 6 hours of sun or more.
There have been years when the island had no measurable rain for several months.
The daytime temperature averages 30°C (86°F) and the nights are never below 20°C (68°F).
Even in the summer months when the temperature rises slightly, the cooling breezes keep the
climate very comfortable.
A major selling point is that Isla Margarita is out of the hurricane belt making it a truly all
year round leisure destination. Isla Margarita has no “traditional” rainy season. If the island
is going to have some rain it is most likely to be in the middle of the summer or from the middle
of November until the beginning of January. The rain falls mostly during the night and commonly
doesn’t last more than a couple of hours. This basically means that the climate of the island is
perfect if you are looking for a glorious sunny vacation.
Tourists have travelled to Isla Margarita for the last 30 years and are met by white beaches,
fringed coconut palms and a pleasant easterly breeze.
