  • Definately summer attire. Warm Year round weather. Dec-Feb can be cool. The rest of the year is warm then extremly hot.

    Sunblock spf30 or higher

    If you lost or run out, don't worry--we have Wal Mart, Target, Super K-mart for those supplies.

    About 20 min. away there is Senator Wash; great place to go camping.

    No bags in hot summer except one for your camera, good (safe) pockets (or comfortable belt) instead. Small city rucksack for warm winter.


    Light clothes (shorts, T-shirts, better too large :-) made of natural materials (cotton) for warm/hot days all year round.
    Sweater/pullover and/or jacket for cold evenings/nights (from November till April).
    Shoes? Oh, yes - you should have them :-). Sandals for city walking and/or good walking shoes for trails around (dangerous reptiles and insects possible).
    Add sun glasses.

    Check the 10-day forecast for Yuma:
    National Weather Service


    Good sun protection cosmetics with high UV filter - use them BEFORE you start to walk around in a sun.

    Be prepared for large contrasts between sun and shadow - sun filters recommended.


    Tourist frige with ice cubes and cold beverages inside :-).

  • Cool clothes. Light long sleeve shirts to keep the sun off, you will burn out here and quickly.

    Always be sure to bring plenty of water. Of course you can get it here, but I recomment buying bottled water.

  • I discovered that Yuma gets cold just like everywhere else in winter, I had expected warmer weather, & hadn't factored the low humidity into it, so if it's winter when you visit, bring the woollies!

    bucket loads of moisturiser!!!! Serious!
