The climate of Natal (Brazil)
Natal is located in the most eastern tip of Brazil and is the capital of the federal state of Rio Grande do Northo. Natal is a very popular holiday destination for both Brazilians and foreign tourists. Just like the city of Cumbuco which is situated in the vicinity, Natal is very popular among kite surfers and wind surfers. This is because of the unique geological situation of the sand dunes along the coast and an ever blowing trade wind. One of the best known beaches is Ponta Negra. In nine out of ten holiday brochures about Natal a photograph of this beach is shown. Natal is one of the host cities for the 2014 soccer world championship.
Natal has a tropical savannah climate with warm to hot temperatures and relatively high humidity figures all year round. There are little extremes in temperatures because of the presence of a trade wind. January is the warmest month with maximum temperatures of 31 degrees Celsius on average. During the first month of the year minimum temperatures are 24 degrees Celsius on average. The coldest month is July with temperatures between 22-27 degrees Celsius on average. Natal gets relatively much rainfall with 1,550 millimeters of rain per year. From September till January Natal has its dry season. The difference between the wet and the dry season is more distinct here than in the more southerly located cities.

More climate information
Climate figures are very useful but don’t present a general impression of the climate and the eventual weather circumstances within a certain period. The figures don’t always reflect the chance of wintry weather, extreme heat or hurricanes. That is why we offer useful extra climate information for each month of the year:
