Africa is a phenomenal destination all year round. Summer is from October through April and winter is from May through August. Summers tend to be quite hot with daily temperatures sitting at approximately 30°C. For beach holidays and birding, summer tends to be the preferred time to visit. Winter is the best for game viewing, as temperatures are low, wildlife tends to concentrate in areas where water is available and the bush is less dense which improves the visibility. Winter temperatures sit at approximately 15-20°C. throughout the day and can drop to 0-5°C at night.
