Climate

As Mozambique lies primarily in the tropics, the climate is warm to hot and humid. Evenings are rarely cold, except for a few nights in winter during June and July. In summer, temperatures can soar, and the humidity levels rise.
Generally the rainy season is from November - March, although it must be said that the weather patterns are not as consistent as they were a few decades ago.
Cyclone season is February - March, with the "cyclone belt" covering just the south of the country.

Good to Know

Most international flights arrive from South Africa. Road conditions are generally poor throughout the country, especially when compared to South Africa, which is why domestic flights are considered the fastest and wisest way to get around Mozambique.
