Where to go when - our guide to French Guiana

The weather in French Guiana is wide and varied
A melting pot of ethnic diversity, Guyane (French Guiana) is most famous for its former penal colony immortalised in the book Papillon. Mostly covered in dense rainforest, French Guiana is a perfect destination for wildlife enthusiasts and is also home to the European Space Station where if you’re lucky you may see a rocket launch. The climate across the country is tropical and temperatures average 27°C throughout the year, although it can be cooler at night in the highlands than on the coast. The driest and sunniest season is Aug-Oct. In January and February carnival kicks off with street parades and parties bringing the entire country almost to a standstill.
