I've been searching for a good city in Brazil (or elsewhere) that is warmer year-round. I like Floripa and BC; however, it gets a little chilly and grey in July & August. I've been to Cartagena, Medellin, Lima, Buenos Aires, Mar de Plata, etc. While all have their charm, I'm not a major fan. I wish I could find a BC or Medellin-type vibe near the ocean in Central or South America. Acapulco, Mexico is just too much of a risk at this point since I love cycling and will frequently ride 20-30 miles outside the city. I can deal with some heat, but Costa Rica coastline seems hot and undeveloped. Any recommendations? Anyone been to Arica or Iquique, Chilie? What's a good city in norther Brazil - I surf so please don't say Recife if the shark situation is still an issue lmao.
