El Pescador has a neo-tropical climate; the temperature varies less than 10 degrees year round. So rather than seasons, they have microclimate changes, where they are subject to the occasional cold front in the winter months. Wind is part of the tropical environment; some days are windy, some are not. They are semi-arid and get less than 25 inches of rain annually.
