What to pack for Foz do Iguaçu in June
Heading to Foz do Iguaçu in June? Here's a packing list built directly from local climate averages — not generic blog advice.

- • Travel-size first-aid kit (band-aids, ibuprofen, antihistamines) Pharmacy access varies
Tops

Bottoms

Rain & weather protection

- ★ Compact travel umbrella For sudden showers
Footwear
- ★ Comfortable walking shoes (broken in) Mild weather, lots of walking
- • Lightweight sneakers (1 backup pair) Rotation prevents blisters
Accessories
- • Sunglasses Bright days expected
- • Sunscreen (SPF 30) Year-round basics
Power, voltage & adapters
- ★ 127V at 60Hz Mains electricity standard for Brazil
- ★ Plug types: N, C (Type N — round 3-pin (Brazil, also South Africa newer outlets)) Most common: N. Older buildings may also use C.
- ★ From the US/Canada: bring an A→N travel adapter US Type A/B plugs don't fit Brazil's outlets
- ★ Voltage varies — São Paulo/Rio are 127V, Brasília + south are 220V. Check before plugging in. Country-specific gotcha
- • From the UK/Ireland: bring a G→N travel adapter UK Type G plugs don't fit Brazil's outlets
- • If your device is labeled '220–240V only' (common for European hairdryers/kettles), it WILL underperform or not work at all here. Most phone/laptop chargers are dual-voltage — they're fine. Brazil runs 127V — too low for EU-only 230V devices
- · Easiest option: a universal travel adapter (e.g. Anker, Epicka) that handles A/B/C/E/F/G/I in one — covers ~95% of countries. If you travel to multiple regions
