How would you rate Easter Island? I'd give it a solid A - warm and no extremes of temperature.

Easter Island Climate, Temperature, Average Weather History, Rainfall/ Precipitation, Sunshine

Some other stats for Easter Island
Latitude 27S
Longitude 109W
Record high: 31.1C
Record low: 7.2C
This site doesn't give sunshine totals but I imagine it's probably not that bad, probably more than 2000 hours if I were to guess.

Not a bad climate, free from extremes. Rating B+.
Similar to Norfolk Island, but a tad warmer.
However, all months including winter have minimum temps at or above 15C and humid , this can get a little clammy after a while, but at least won't need a winter doona on your bed.

About a B- since sun around 2400 hrs according to one site, but too humid.

B to B+.

Loses marks for weak summer heat, winter chill potential, clammy humidity periods.

Overall a fairly decent climate.

I think you'd find the strength of the sun would be quite considerable.

I figured that, but I can't stay in the sun every minute of the day. (without consequences )

Solid B.

Seems like a very idyllic place with a near "perfect" climate.

It could be a little wetter actually...

Very close to perfect, but B for being a little too dry!

Definitely an A for comfort, sub-tropical island and equatorial mountain climates must surely be the most comfortable in the world.
