There is rarely a poor time to visit the eastern circuit of Tanzania. Because of the tropical nature of the islands and the temperate influence of the Indian ocean, you will often experience good weather year-round. Often, it is easier to simply state when not to go to the east rather than when to go there.

April and May are potentially the least desirable times to visit the islands. While they are still beautiful and picturesque, the rainy season falls in April and May, meaning there will be a higher than usual chance of rain on your trip. Often, these storms come in quick and leave just as fast – swift afternoon thundershowers.

The below chart will help you decide when will be the best time for you to visit Tanzania’s Eastern Circuit.
