Bonito MS in Summer 2026 Climate, Seasonal Charm and the 5 Most Popular Tours

Paradise at Its Hottest Vibe

If you are planning your trip between December 2025 and February 2026, get ready, because you have chosen one of the most vibrant and energetic times to experience Bonito MS.

Summer here is not just warm, it is the high season of life, nature and fun.

The crystal clear waters reach the ideal temperature for long swims, the forest is lush and the nights are perfect for enjoying the city center.

However, Summer brings two realities: rain and maximum demand.

This means that to have the trip of your dreams, you need strategy.

This guide is your map to mastering Bonito’s high season. We will show you what the weather is like, the city’s vibe and, most importantly, which tours you need to book NOW so you do not miss out.

The Weather and the Summer Vibe in Bonito

Summer in Bonito, which coincides with the end of year holidays and January, is marked by intense heat, quick tropical showers and a festive atmosphere.

The Weather Seasonal Rain and Tropical Heat

• High TemperaturesExpect days with average temperatures between 25°C and 33°C. Light clothing such as shorts, t shirts and swimwear is basically a rule. The water in the rivers and natural swimming areas is at its most pleasant temperature, perfect for long periods of snorkeling and swimming.

• The Reality of RainSummer is the rainy season in the region. But do not worry. Rain usually comes in quick showers that fall in the late afternoon or at night. It is rare for it to rain the entire day, and the sun usually returns quickly. As we covered in another guide, rain is essential for keeping the waterfalls with a strong water volume.
