Rainy Season

Generally the main rainy season lasts during March, April and May. Afternoon tropical downpours are the norm – which can be heavy on any of the islands. The humidity is high and daily temperatures reach the low-mid 30°s.

The Long Dry Season

The long dry season lasts throughout June, July, August, September and October. Temperatures vary hugely with altitude and location, but it's usually a fine, clear sky and sunny weather – it's a great time to visit Pangani. During November and December there's another rainy season: the 'short rains'. These are much lighter than the main rains and less reliable.

Short Dry Season

If it has rained during the short rains, then it normally dries up for a few months, January and February, which is Tanzania's 'short dry season', before starting to rain again in earnest in March.
