Madagascar – When to go
Madagascar has two seasons, a warm, wet season from
November to April, and a cooler dry season between May and
October. However, different parts of the country have very
different weather.
The east coast is hotter and wetter, with up to 4000mm of
rainfall per year. In the rainy season, there are strong winds,
and these can cause a lot of damage.  Avoid visiting eastern
Madagascar between January and March because the weather can make road
travel very difficult.  The dry season is cooler and more pleasant.
The high, central part of the country is much drier and cooler. About 1,400 mm of
rain falls in the rainy season, with some thunderstorms, but the summer is usually
sunny and dry, but it can be cold, especially in the mornings, with freezing
showers, and it may snow in mountain areas above 2,400m, and even stay there
for several days.
The west coast is the driest part of the island. Here, the winter months are
pleasant with little rain, cooler temperatures and blue skies.  The summers can be
extremely hot, especially in the southwest.  This part of the country is semi-
desert, and only gets around 300mm of rain per year.
