Best Time to Visit Zanzibar
Zanzibar is a stunning beach destination you can enjoy all year round, thanks to its warm tropical climate. However, the most popular time to visit is during the dry seasons, from June to October and December to February. During these months, the weather is sunny and ideal for beach outings and exploring the island.
Even in the wet seasons (mid-March to May and November), Zanzibar remains beautiful. Rain showers are typically brief—rarely lasting more than 30 minutes—and temperatures still hover around a pleasant 28°C.
February is the hottest month (averaging 28°C), while July is the coolest (around 24°C). With such consistent warmth and beauty, any time is a great time to experience Zanzibar.
