When to fly

The weather in Guayaquil remains consistently hot throughout the year, but rainfall varies significantly. December is the warmest month with temperatures reaching 29.7°C, while March is the wettest, with up to 29 rainy days. The period from August to November is considered drier and more comfortable for visiting.

Flight prices depend on the season: the most affordable deals are usually found in April — AED 743, and in February — AED 769. July is the most expensive month to plan a flight, with one-way ticket prices starting AED 1,810.
