Locals and visitors flock to Lima’s beaches in January and February—the hottest months of the year, which also coincide with local school holidays. Visit on January 18 for the anniversary of the founding of Lima and join the 24-hour celebration in the Plaza de Armas with music, dancing, and fireworks.

Travelers who don’t mind a bit of rain and cooler weather will find much lower prices for airfare and lodging during Lima’s winter season, lasting from May through October.

June through September is the most popular time for treks on the Inca Trail to Machu Picchu, so expect Lima to be filled with backpackers in transit.
