If you struggle with acclimating to significant temperature changes, consider traveling to Brazil from June to August. It's also essential to take into account the rainy seasons in São Paulo.
In October, Brazil still experiences dry weather, making it similar to the vacation experience from June to August, albeit hotter. The weather in May is quite similar as well. It's a great time to relax on the beach with warm temperatures and lower prices compared to the high season. However, when the rainy seasons begin in São Paulo, it can become more challenging. These seasons typically start in November, end in March, and extend into early April, with humidity levels reaching up to 80%. Nevertheless, even during this period, tourists are drawn to São Paulo.
The Vegetation and Animal Life of São Paulo
São Paulo is a metropolis often referred to as a "concrete jungle," although it is home to architectural wonders. The lush vegetation in São Paulo is primarily found in natural parks and reserves, where it thrives in abundance and vibrant colors. You can explore several national parks located in the state of São Paulo:
- Itatiaia National Park (Parque Nacional do Itatiaia)
- Serra de Bocaína National Park (Parque Nacional Serra de Bocaína)
- Carlos Botelho National Park (Parque Estadual Carlos Botelho, PECB)
- Anchieta Island National Park
- Laje de Santos National Water Park (Parque Estadual Marinho da Laje de Santos) near the island of Moela (Ilha de Moela), with the rock of Santos itself as an island.
The rich diversity of Brazil's wildlife in São Paulo, both in the state and the city, can be observed in these natural parks and at the local zoo. The subtropical forests serve as a sanctuary, hosting rare species of mammals, including monkeys and anteaters. São Paulo is also home to an array of unique birds, such as hummingbirds and parrots, which never fail to captivate visitors.
