BEST TIME TO VISIT KILWA DURING YOUR COASTAL TRAVELS IN EASTERN TANZANIA

Kilwa has excellent tropical weather for you if you prefer a sunlit holiday in eastern Tanzania during the months from June to October. It is warm and dry with a cool breeze; though humidity levels are high since as you located next to the ocean. But historically, there is hardly any rainfall, and you can be sure of lots of sunshine, perfect for sunbathing and swimming.

Indian Ocean currents are also calm, and the clear blue waters present great opportunities for snorkeling and exploring the aquatic life (read more on where to stay in Kilwa). Temperatures also remain more or less constant with highs of 82 F (28 C) to 90 F (32 C) and lows of 68 F (20 C) to 75 F (22 C) but varying seasonally between the dry and wet periods.



If you were to beach tour Kilwa in November and December, you would encounter the short rains that extend as long rains through most parts of January to April. Unusually compared to other coastal regions in Tanzania, the long rains alter to short rains in May. And through the heavy showers, the equatorial sun does come out making the weather pleasant for a few hours.

You can contact AfricanMecca Safaris to guide and organize your Kilwa itinerary according to your beachfront accommodation preference, the time when you would like to take a well-rounded Tanzania dream trip, and the many exhilarating choices you have when it comes to visiting the wondrous aquatic and terrestrial locales of this fabulous country.
