BEST TIME TO VISIT KENYA

Best time to visit Kenya

Many people keep asking when is the best time to visit Kenya.

Best times depend on one’s preferences. Do they like warm weather or cold weather? What activities do they want to indulge in?

Wildlife Viewing: The dry seasons from late June to October and January to February are ideal for wildlife viewing. This is when animals are more active, and the vegetation is less dense, making it easier to spot them.

The Great Migration: If you want to see the Great Migration in the Masai Mara, the best time is typically between July and September when millions of wildebeest and other animals cross the Mara River.

Bird Watching: If you’re interested in bird watching, the wet seasons (March to May and October to December) are great, as many migratory birds visit during these times.

Beach Experience: From January to March, this period is hot and dry, making it perfect for beachgoers and those looking to enjoy water activities like snorkeling and diving.

Weather: The weather is generally pleasant throughout the year, but the warmest months are January and February. The long rains occur from March to May, while the short rains are from October to December.
