Situated just above the equator, the weather in Venezuela is warm and pleasant all year round. Depending on altitude the country experiences a humid tropical or alpine climate. In most major urban areas, including Caracas, temperatures average between 54°F (12°C) and 77°F (25°C) all year, although it can get significantly hotter. Most of the country experiences a rainy season between May and November, making the dry season (December to April) the best time to visit, though the Angel Falls are most impressive towards the end of the wet season.
