I am going to South America in June and July.
I want to spend the first 2 weeks on a hot tropical beach where everything is super cheap so I can get real fat and tan.
Then I want to Farm (WWOOF) for a couple weeks - somewhere sunny and warm.
The rest of the time? Who knows.
Any recommendations for regions? (Very general - weather wise - safety wise, etc)

you are going during south america's winter season, so hot tropical beach might be tough.

I am open to Central America - non-Wwoof farming, anything really.
I went to Southeast Asia a couple years ago - and while that would be a great place to go in this window, I would really like to see some new things first and foremost!

I went to Peru and Argentina (just Buenos Aires for a weekend on the way home) and I couldn't recommend them enough. No beaches but loads to do and see and all very cheap.
I spent a week in Arequipa. I was by the pool not the sea, but that sorted out my needs in the relaxation dept. Lovely sunny weather and a waitress on hand to bring me an endless supply of pisco sours while I enjoyed a good book. Perfect.
