Best time to visit Fortaleza
Fortaleza tends to be hot all year round. Being close to the Equator, there are no drastic temperature changes throughout the year, with an average temperature of around 27°C (81°F). Due to its geographical location, the wind is also always present in the city, which helps to slightly ease the high temperatures.
But pay attention: even though it’s hot all year, it’s important to consider the rainy season so it doesn’t affect your trip. The rains are more frequent between the months of February and May.
However, due to the wind, even during the rainy season, a day that starts cloudy can easily become sunny just a few moments later. Between August and December, the weather is drier, and the rains are less frequent.
It’s worth remembering that Fortaleza and its surroundings are world-famous destinations for windsurfing and kitesurfing. For those who want to practice these sports, the ideal months are between August and November.
