Namibia Weather

Safaris in Namibia are available year-round, although the best game-viewing periods are during the dry winter months of May through September. However, since winter temperatures can dip below freezing at night and ground frost may be common, spring or fall months such as October or April are the mildest. The best months for bird viewing are November to April, and February and March make up the country's rainy season.
