Somalia
Horn of Africa whispers ancient lore, December to February cools the arid coast
01 · Overview
The best time to visit Somalia is between December and February, when dry, cooler days tame the coast and Horn of Africa heat. With 25°C to 30°C weather, it’s ideal for exploring Mogadishu’s markets, visiting Laas Geel’s rock art, or relaxing on Jazeera Beach. For milder conditions, try November or March.
