Traversing Ecuador from north to south are the Andes, topped with high volcanic peaks. This biologically diverse country is divided into four different regions: the Pacific Coast, the Sierra (Andean Highlands), the Oriente (Amazon), and the Galapagos Islands.
The climate in Ecuador varies from region to region, depending on the elevation. Quito is spring-like all year round and can be chilly in the mornings and evenings. The Pacific Coast has a tropical climate and a severe rainy season. The Amazon has a humid tropical climate and also a severe rainy season. The temperature varies on the Galapagos Islands: from June to November the temperature averages 22 °C (72 °F) and is accompanied by a cool breeze and frequent drizzles. From December to May the temperature averages 25 °C (77 °F), with sunshine and sporadic strong rains.
