11 Cities with the Highest Average Temperature in the World

6. Maracaibo (Venezuela)

Average annual temperature (WWIS and NOAA) 28.99 °C – 84.18 °F

A gem of Venezuelan northern coast, Maracaibo guards the entrance to the Gulf of Venezuela. This is the second largest city of South American northernmost country with population of about one and a half million citizens. Metropolitan area, however, numbers around 2.1 million people. Maracaibo isn’t known as a main touristic destination, but thanks to its climate and weather throughout the year, you won’t miss any of the sun, sea and sand aspects of traditional tourism. Average temperatures are stable throughout the year, but summer months including April and May are still slightly hotter than the other. Coldest month is January, but ironically, Maracaibo sees the most sunshine during it – over 266 hours.
