Although the islands are located in Ecuador, the temperature of the ocean is constant, between 7 and 28 degrees Celsius according to the time of year. Weather is highly determined by surface temperature and sea currents, which creates microclimates that influence the particular habitats of the flora and fauna of each island. The islands also have drastic changes of temperature and each month presents its own characteristics.

The period of time that goes from January to March are the rainy months, with March being the hottest month of the year. During this season plants abound, and the pleasant water temperature is perfect for marine sports. From July to September we observe lower precipitations and the islands are drier, but cooler, the sea temperature drops to a great extent, being the ideal season to see the oceanic life, since the animals have preference for the icy waters.
