Climate: Malawi has a tropical climate with a wet season (November to April) and a dry season (May to October). The best time to visit is during the dry season, especially from May to September when temperatures are comfortable, and it’s ideal for wildlife viewing and outdoor activities. October can be quite hot, particularly in lower regions like Lake Malawi.

Worst Time: January to March is the rainy season, which can make travel difficult due to heavy rains and potential flooding.
