When is the best time to go to Mombasa?
The best time to visit Mombasa is during the dry season, which runs from June to October and also from December to February. This period offers the most pleasant weather for exploring and enjoying the coast.

For travelers looking for ideal beach conditions, the months of July, August, and September are particularly good. During this time, you can expect plenty of sunshine, lower humidity, and calm ocean waters, great for swimming, snorkeling, and relaxing on the Diani Beach. The temperatures are warm but not excessively hot, typically ranging from the mid-70s to low 80s Fahrenheit (24-28°C).

Couples often find December to February appealing due to the festive atmosphere around the holidays and the consistently clear skies. While it can be slightly warmer than the mid-year dry season, the ocean breezes keep it comfortable. This period is also popular for wildlife viewing in nearby parks, as animals gather around water sources, making them easier to spot.

Travelers seeking to avoid larger crowds and potentially find better value might consider the shoulder months of June or October.
