All Months
March through June gives you the sweet spot — dry weather without the intense heat that kicks in later. Temperatures hover around 85°F (29°C) with clear skies perfect for volcano hikes.
October and November work too, as the rainy season winds down. You'll catch some afternoon showers, but they cool things off and the countryside turns green.
Skip July through September unless you love humidity and daily downpours. December through February brings cooler weather but also the harmattan winds that kick up dust storms.
Here's what locals know: visit during Semana Santa (Easter week) for the biggest party of the year, but book accommodation months ahead.
