Forecast

Huacachina has a desert climate. High pressure dominates the area due to its location near the coast and in a valley.

Air pressure in Huacachina is usually high because it's close to the ocean and surrounded by sand dunes.

The Andes mountains to the east create a rain shadow effect. Moist air rises, cools, and condenses, resulting in low-pressure systems over the mountains, but Huacachina remains under high pressure.

During summer, pressure remains steady with very little rain. In winter, it's still high pressure but slightly cooler.

Huacachina's geography and climate mean air pressure stays relatively high year-round. This results in clear skies and sunny weather.
