- Mites, especially in the coastal areas, except in the northern part of the eastern coast which has tropical characteristics. The inland areas enjoy a significantly drier climate. The summer, which runs from October to April, is generally warm, cooler in the evening hours. The winter (June - August) is dry and sunny.
- March, April, and May, due to the mildness of the climate, but especially for the lower frequency of rain. For Cape Town, the best period is from November to May: the climate is identical to our summer. However, consider that due to the different latitude, the sun's rays are much more direct and it's easy to get sunburned.
