the off-season is ideal for holidaymakers searching for nothing more than beach time, relaxation, and rest - march through to june, and september to november, tend to be the quietest times with the lowest rates and most room on the beaches.

the middle of december to halfway through february is by far the busiest period with visitor numbers peaking in january, the weather, however, remains great all year round - in fact, there is very little rainfall on the peninsula due to a few contributing factors such as wind speed, temperature, and humidity.

temperatures are generally pleasant with the annual average hovering somewhere above 26 degrees - the average number of sunny days and starry nights is almost double when compared to that of rio de janeiro and amazingly roughly three times that of angra dos reis.
