When is a good time to go to Namibia?

Lodges and hotels in Namibia are open all year round. The rainy season is November to March, but having said that, Namibia is a desert country and rainfall is sporadic so you may not see any rainfall if you go during these months. If it does rain, it’s a wonderful sight; the desert springs into life with beautiful flowers and green shoots appearing almost straight away.

The following chart is a quick reference to the predominant weather conditions during different months of the year. However, please remember that there are no hard and fast rules!
