5 DAYS ZANZIBAR BEACH HOLIDAY: BEST TIME TO TRAVEL TO ZANZIBAR
The best time to travel to Zanzibar for a beach holiday typically depends on your weather preferences and what you want to experience during your trip. Zanzibar has two main seasons: the dry season and the wet season.
Dry Season (June to October):This is considered the best time to visit Zanzibar for a beach holiday. The weather is generally dry and sunny with little to no rainfall. The sea is calm and clear, making it ideal for water activities like snorkeling, diving, and swimming. Temperatures are pleasant, ranging from the mid-70s to mid-80s Fahrenheit (24-30°C). It's the peak tourist season, so be prepared for higher prices and more crowded beaches and accommodations. Booking in advance is advisable.
Short Rain Season (November to mid-December):This period experiences occasional short rains, but it's still a good time to visit if you want to avoid large crowds. Prices may be lower compared to the peak season. You can still enjoy the beaches, but there may be some rainy days.
Long Rain Season (mid-December to early March):This is the wet season in Zanzibar, characterized by heavy rainfall and higher humidity. While you can find good deals on accommodations and fewer tourists, some activities may be limited due to the weather. It's not the best time for water-based activities, but it can still be an option if you don't mind occasional rain.
Pre-Easter and Easter Season (late March to early April):This period can be a bit unpredictable weather-wise, with the end of the long rains and transitioning into the dry season. It's a good time to visit if you want to avoid the peak tourist season and enjoy more moderate prices.
In summary, the best time for a Zanzibar beach holiday is during the dry season, which is from June to October. However, if you prefer quieter beaches and can tolerate occasional rain, the short rain season in November and the pre-Easter season in late March to early April can also be great options.
