Sechura Bay Location

-5.5822, -80.9528

-5.58222, -80.95278 View on OpenStreetMap →

Sechura Bay sits at -5.5822°N, 80.9528°W, on the coast of Peru. The marker on the map shows the spot the readings on this page come from. It usually sits a short distance from the town centre, out on the open water itself, so the numbers stay tied to the coast rather than a generic point inland.

Coastlines bend, headlands focus the water, and the temperature can run noticeably differently between two beaches that look close together on a map. Comparing nearby locations is a quick way to see how local geography is shaping the readings.
