When To Go

For most people the dry (winter) season is most attractive (i.e. April/May to October/November). The chance of rain is slim, daytime temperatures are in the 20sC and the low vegetation and limited availability of water mean that game viewing is at its best.

Some of the best birdwatching can be had from November to April and the orchids of Nyika are best seen from December to March/April.

Malawi's temperatures are moderated by altitude. In the hottest month (usually November) maximum temperatures will be around 30°C. In the coldest month (probably July) maximum temperatures will be in the low 20’s.
