As Tanzania is a country with a tropical climate, it doesn’t experience a summer and winter. This means you can avoid northern hemisphere weather in December and visit Tanzania for an unforgettable safari and beach getaway in the sun.
December is often described as a month in Tanzania’s Green Season. With fewer visitors, lush green landscapes and returning migratory birds, it is a beautiful time to visit.
The weather in Tanzania during December is a tale of two halves. The short rains, occurring in brief afternoon storms, start at the beginning of November and continue into December. By mid-December, the rains begin to subside, leaving crisp blue skies and green landscapes in its gentle wake. Consequently, the second half of December experiences drier weather, but there is still the possibility of light rain.
