San Carlos is located in the “Arco Seco” region, an area renowned for its generally drier, sunnier climate than other parts of Panama.
Panama has two tropical seasons, each with its own atmosphere and advantages.
🌿 During the green season, nature becomes lush, landscapes are covered in green and the tropical atmosphere becomes particularly lively, soothing and spectacular after the warm rains typical of the tropical Pacific. What’s more, in Arco Seco, it rains once every 30-45 minutes, usually in the evening. Ce qui baisse la température.
☀️ During the dry season, the days are very sunny, accompanied by a pleasant breeze from the Pacific, ideal for enjoying the beaches, working outdoors or exploring the region.
