Ten-year averages for this calendar month. A rainy day is one with at least 1 mm of rain, as a weather station counts it. The model these figures come from drizzles more than a rain gauge, the more so the warmer the month, so its days count from 2 mm, rising to 5 mm in the hottest.

Weather read at Puno, 44 km from the airport (JUL): ten years of ERA5 and ERA5-Land reanalysis, through Open-Meteo's open data.

How busy it gets

February: quiet. No month stands out as busy; quietest in February.

What to pack

  • Warm layers for the evenings, which drop to about 6°C.
  • Rain gear you will actually use: about 24 rainy days and 208 mm.
  • Sun protection: about 10 hours of sunshine a day.
  • Humidity averages 76%; breathable fabrics dry faster.

Each line is a threshold over the ten-year figures above, not advice from anywhere else.

Before you go

Type A and B and C plugs at 220 V. Drives on the right. The currency is the Nuevo sol. UK Foreign Office: avoid all but essential travel to parts. Everything for Peru: cost of living, languages, emergency numbers and health.

On arrival in Lake Titicaca: the apps, paying, getting around, tipping and the emergency numbers.
