May

May

May should be the start of the floods reaching the Okavango Delta in Botswana. It is also a particularly gorgeous month for Zambia, and Morocco is still lovely at this time of year. 

  • Botswana

    Botswana

    • Very good time to explore the Kalahari (not oppressively hot).
    • The Okavango Delta begins to flood. Start of the best season to visit this area.

  • Galapagos

    • Palo Santo trees start shedding.
    • Waved Albatross begin egg-laying.

  • India

    India

    This is a generally good month for wildlife in India. It is very good for spotting tigers as the heat means less vegetation for them to hide in. For example:

    • Corbett (elephants and tigers)
    • Kanha and Bandhavgargh (tigers and birds). 

  • Morocco

    Morocco

    • This is a particularly pleasant month for Morocco. Mostly still green, and not too hot. 

  • Tanzania

    Tanzania

    • The migration is mostly in the west of the Serengeti (though be aware that this is also rainy season).

  • Zambia

    Zambia

    • Rainfall permitting, Victoria Falls is in full flow.
    • Start of the best season for visiting Zambia, particularly South Luangwa. 
    • Excellent for seeing the Shoebill Storks in Bangweulu Swamps.
