Rainfall typically eases in parts of the Andean region though the Pacific and Amazon stay wet; coastal regions are generally pleasant for beach travel. Tourist arrivals pick up in some areas ahead of July-August holidays.

Average temperature across Colombia in June.
Cartagena, Santa Marta, Barranquilla, Rosario Islands
June is humid and muggy along the Caribbean seaboard, with more regular afternoon thunderstorms and warm overnight temperatures that rarely fall below the low 20s°C (70s°F). Cartagena’s old town remains walkable in the mornings, but bring breathable fabrics and expect seaside restaurants to fill for cooler evening breezes. Visibility for diving can be variable; check conditions before booking excursions.
Nuquí, Bahía Solano, Quibdó
June maintains high humidity and frequent heavy showers, though you may begin to notice more windows of calm sea suitable for boat trips; conditions are still unreliable for precise diving itineraries. The rainforest is vibrant and waterfalls thunder after downpours; trail conditions are challenging, so sturdy boots are essential. Travel budgets can stretch farther now because international crowds remain low.
Bogotá, Medellín, Coffee Triangle, Cali
June eases into a drier stretch in parts of the mountain zone - Medellín experiences reliably pleasant days and fewer afternoon storms, earning its “eternal spring” reputation. Bogotá remains cooler than the lower valleys but sees clearer windows for city exploration. The Coffee Triangle is lush and ideal for scenic drives; pack layers for cool mornings at altitude and breathable gear for warm valley hikes.
Eastern Plains
June keeps the Llanos broadly wet: rivers are high, and boat-based ecotourism thrives. Canoe trips and lodge stays on stilts are common; expect warm, humid nights and heavy afternoon downpours. Overland travel is restricted in places, so accept schedules set by lodges and guides and pack waterproof bags to protect electronics and documents.
Leticia, Puerto Nariño, Amacayacu
June begins to show subtle lowering of water levels in parts of the basin, opening some river margins and oxbow lakes for wildlife spotting but still with daily rains. Leticia’s markets fill with fresh fish and jungle produce, and communities prepare for more accessible shores in coming months. Lightweight rain gear and flexible itineraries remain essential.
There are no major festivals or events in Colombia during June to be aware of.
