Is Iguazu Falls Full-Moon Rainbow (Moonbow) happening right now?

As of Jun 19, 2026, 8:54 PM, in season now. Earth Exhibit tracks the live conditions and flags it the moment it is on.

A moonbow is a rainbow produced by moonlight refracting and reflecting in the water droplets of Iguazu Falls.

When a bright full moon, clear skies, and abundant waterfall spray align, a ghostly, often white-tinted arc appears above or within the falls.

Visibility is highly dependent on moon phase, weather, and river flow.
