Traveller notes on Windhoek in June
Other months in Windhoek
May opens Namibia's dry season, which runs through to October, and the forum rates May and June as the quiet, high-value end of it: the rains have stopped, game viewing in Etosha improves as animals concentrate on waterholes, and the crowds have not arrived. Windhoek runs near 24°C by day with essentially no rain — under one wet day in the month — beneath blue, cloudless skies. The catch is the mornings: an average low near 11°C, and campers report 2°C at dawn. Regulars pack warm jackets, gloves, socks and hats for early starts, and that is not over-preparation.
