Burkina Faso - Best time to visit


When to go, what to pack

You are here: Africa --> Burkina Faso --> When to go


When to go



The best time to visit Burkina Faso is winter, especially the months of December and January: the weather is good, it's hot but the air is dry. Sometimes at night it can be a bit cold, especially in the north, while during the day it can get hot everywhere, but especially in the south.
By February, the heat increases and becomes intense starting from the south, then spring is very hot everywhere.
Summer is rainy, and particularly intense showers can sometimes cause flooding.
All in all, even November, which is a hot month, can be chosen because it is not so different from December and January, especially in the south.

What to pack



In winter: bring light clothes for the day, long, loose-fitting and of natural fabric (cotton or linen), a desert turban for the wind-borne sand and dust, sunglasses (even graduated instead of contact lenses), a jacket and a sweater for the evening, desert boots or sandals.
In summer: bring light, tropics-friendly clothes, a light sweatshirt, a light raincoat (or umbrella) for the rain showers.
