Not all of South America has a tropical climate; the continent features a variety of climates due to its diverse geography. Tropical climates are primarily found in the northern regions, such as the Amazon Basin and parts of Colombia and Venezuela. In contrast, southern regions like Patagonia experience temperate and subpolar climates, while the Andes mountains create varied climatic zones, including arid deserts in the west and cooler highland areas. Thus, the climate across South America is quite heterogeneous.
