Zanzibar has a tropical climate due to its location south of the equator, allowing you to plan your beach holiday in this area of Eastern Africa at any time of year without experiencing severe temperature variations when compared to Southern Africa.
Peak season (December to February) Since this is the most popular season to visit Zanzibar, expect to pay 30-40% more for your flights and accommodations. Keep in mind that the later you book your flights, the more you may spend. Off-peak (March to May and November) Though there may be some rain, booking during Zanzibar’s wet season may save you up to 50% on flights and accommodations! Bear in mind that you still want to book your flights as soon as possible, even during the off-season, to obtain the cheapest pricing. Although there is much rain and you might want to carry an umbrella, it is far from monsoon-like and you will not be confined in the hotel room in Zanzibar’s rainy season. Throughout this season, from March through May, temperatures will be about 29°C.
