The warmth and sunshine are present the whole year. Each region possesses its own microclimate. The seasons are "inverted" in comparison with the Northern Hemisphere. The coast of the island always holds a hot or mild temperature. The austral summer, from November to April, has an average temperature of 30°C! This is the hot and humid season. At altitude, the temperature can drop by ten degrees. This is the ideal period to indulge in diving or wild water activities such as canyoning.

At altitude, the temperature plummets significantly, while at the coast and especially the beach area (West), the water is still around 25°C.
