Time your visit with Madagascar’s seasons
As the weather in Madagascar varies significantly month by month, it is important to time your visit well.
From late December to April is cyclone season when we would recommend avoiding travel to the country. From April to June the weather can be intermittent with some periods of glorious sunshine, then heavy downpours.
July to November is the best time to visit as the weather is predominantly dry and cooler. The days get hotter and hotter throughout the year until November and December when the rains start again.
If you are travelling to Madagascar to see humpback whales as they migrate from the Antarctic to calve, try to plan your visit between July to September.
