Which do you prefer: Lima or Walvis Bay? (climate, warmest, temperature)

[Bisfbath]

Lima has a notoriously unusual climate that isn't replicated anywhere outside that coast of South America. Probably the closest analogue is the Namibian coast.

But which do you prefer: Lima or Walvis Bay?

Both are rather mild desert climates. Both are very dry but Lima gets less rain, though spread over more than twice as many days as Walvis Bay. As one would expect for being 13 degrees further from the equator, Walvis Bay is cooler, but surprisingly has a smaller difference in temperature between the warmest and coldest month than the Peruvian capital. Walvis Bay is also much sunnier.

Tough one
Lima is warmer but Walvis Bay is way sunnier

I think Lima

A garbage dump.

[Isleofpalms85]

Neither one as both suck for being among the most rainless dumps on planet earth, so I will not vote on this battle. Fair enough?

Lima because it's warmer

Ditto.

[klimkin199]

Both are too dry in summer.
Walvis Bay: C-
Lima: D (too cloudy in winter and too warm year-round)

[Gorgonopian]

As for me they're equal, Walvis is good because cooler and wetter, and Lima is good because not too much sun. Though these too go as E for me)

[srfoskey]

Walvis Bay for the sunshine.

Both are horrifically dry.

However if I was forced to choose I would pick Lima, even though it's warmer. At least it is nice and cloudy with higher humidity.

I would lose my mind faster in Walvis Bay with constant sun and no rain.
