    Best Time to Visit Cape Town

    General
    See more photos

    Like most places, the best time to visit Cape Town is dependent on weather and climate. We are blessed with a Mediterranean climate with warm, dry summers with limited humidity and relatively mild, wet winters, so really you can visit Cape Town and South Africa all year round. However, Capetonians live for the summer and everyone comes out for beach volleyball, street parties and sundowners.

    Nov-March is summer season, and is usually hot and sunny most days. There is a welcome breeze known locally as the ‘Cape Doctor’ with some days bringing stronger winds to defeat unbearable temperatures. Summer is a great time to visit if you want to enjoy the beach and see a buzzing Cape Town which doesn’t sleep.

    March-May is Cape Town’s short autumn, which offers the perfect weather for exploring. The summer wind has died down but days are still warm, and the local vegetation turns to stunning burnt oranges and reds.

    May-Aug brings cooler, wetter weather however we do enjoy the odd day of warm sunshine. Winter is also the best time to spot whales, and the sunsets are really rewarding.

    Aug – Nov is an unpredictable time in Cape Town, with beautiful sunny days and some heavy rainstorms. However spring is a lovely time to visit the wildlife parks and open spaces surrounding the city when they are in full bloom.
