Flores Weather

- Mild summers perfect for exploringThe mild summer temperatures allow visitors on holiday to Flores to explore the island at their leisure without being too overwhelmed by the sun. The sub-tropical climate has proved to be very beneficial for the indigenous plant life, and as a result Flores is green all year round. There are many nature trails to keep a family holiday to Flores occupied, and most of them will lead visitors to unspoilt areas of natural beauty, like the many waterfalls dotted around the island. While the temperature can hit the late twenties during July and August, it often averages at a pleasantly warm 23C - perfect conditions for a spot of volcano exploration. Weather in Flores - Popular water sports destinationThe high visibility and the fertile ocean floor have made Flores holidays very popular indeed amongst scuba divers. The volcanic island has many underwater caverns and crags filled with colourful rocks that fill any deep-sea adventure with a serene and picturesque landscape. Deep-sea fishing has also become a popular pastime on the island, and a family holiday to Flores can involve enjoying a day out on the Atlantic, rods in hand, looking for that big catch on one of the many boats available for families to charter. For a more hands on approach to the surrounding sea, why not hire a sailboat and take the family out to explore the calm blue waters?  - Late summer breaksWhile the early part of the year is particularly rainy, September to October maintain an average temperature in the low twenties and are relatively dry. Visiting off-season will ensure a cheap holiday to Flores is less crowded, and visitors will be able to enjoy the stunning scenery and lush greenery at a far more relaxed pace. There's also a great opportunity to enjoy some lake fishing in the craters dotted around the island. Due to the island’s lush climate, and mild yearlong temperatures rarely dropping below 10 degrees, the island provides a great opportunity for visitors to sample the local produce at the weekly markets and restaurants.Email this to a friendClick here to send this page to a friendExtrasCar hire
