Climate
   
  As one would expect being on the equator, the islands have a tropical climate and are hot and humid most of the year. The temperature ranges between 22-32 degrees (average 27 degrees) and there are rainy and dry (Gravana) seasons.

The rainy season is generally October-November and March-May, however this does not mean constant rain. It generally falls in heavy infrequent bursts. The dry season is June-September with Southern breezes and moderate temperatures.

The months of December to February are the hottest months with temperatures between 25-32 degrees. Temperatures in the mountains are cooler and fresher and are often shrouded in mist and cloud. The island of Principe is more humid than its neighbour, Sao Tome.
