Wanderlust World Wanderlust World The Everglades, a sprawling subtropical wilderness in South Florida, basks in a true tropical climate. This means consistently warm temperatures and abundant rainfall define the region year-round. Average temperatures typically hover between 70°F and 80°F, creating a perpetually warm environment.
The climate follows a distinct wet-and-dry seasonal pattern. The rainy season kicks off in May and stretches through October, drenching the landscape with an average of 60 inches of rain. This deluge transforms the "River of Grass" into a vast, slow-moving sheet of water, vital for the ecosystem's health. The dry season, from November through April, brings lower humidity and cooler nights, making it the peak season for visitors hoping to spot wildlife congregating around remaining water holes.
