How about a trip to Arica, Chile
A Brief Summary
Widely regarded as the driest inhabited place on earth, Arica is very, very dry. Obviously, given this title, any month of the year here, you’ll be highly unlikely to see any rain, but November is historically especially dry, with no rain having been recorded here during the month, EVER. Surprisingly for such a parched environment, temperatures are rarely hotter than a warm spring day, so if you’re looking for a trip to somewhere a little different, or you have a deep-seated aversion to rainfall, perhaps the far north west of Chile is where you should be looking to spend some time

Nights are cool year-round, but can be extremely cold, due tp the gin clear skies and high altitude, especially during the southern hemisphere winter, from Jun to Aug, with temperatures well below -15°c.

Sunshine levels are high throughout the year, but it is exceptionally sunny from May to Sep.
