In the dry season it can be irritatingly hot in the afternoon if you are not up in the hills or under the shade on the beach.

Luckily, majority of the vacation homes available for rent in Uvita are perched a few hundred feet above sea level. The hills above the town enjoy cooling sea breezes during the day, and in the evening a mountain breeze in the opposite direction. Some long staying guests decided to turn off their air condition and enjoy the oxygen-rich breezes that sweep down from the mountains at night. Most evenings are very pleasant and you can sit outside most of the time, only at the peak of the day is air conditioning really needed.
