Average weather, temperature, rainfall, sunshine hours

The climate of Güiria is
tropical, with a dry season from February to April and a rainy season from May to January. The wettest period is from June to November. From November to April, the north-east trade winds blow, but since we are close to the sea, in the first part, from November to January, the rains are still quite frequent, even though they gradually decrease, while in other areas of Venezuela it is already the dry season.
The city is the capital of the state of Sucre and is located in the north-east of Venezuela, at 10 degrees north latitude, on the southern coast of the Paria peninsula. To the east lies the island of Trinidad.
Güiria lies in the southernmost part of the trajectory of
hurricanes, which can sometimes affect the north coast of Venezuela, although more rarely than in the central and northern part of the Caribbean. However, it cannot be ruled out that a hurricane or tropical storm can bring strong winds and abundant rains here as well. The hurricane season runs from June to November, although they are more likely from August to October.
