What it's like in March
Is March the right month?
The best month in Harare is September (9.6/10), 1.7 pt higher than March.
Our verdict
Harare, this is African high altitude (4,900 ft) that softens the climate: not the Mozambican heatwave, nor the extreme drought of Botswana. September is my favorite month (9.6/10): 57-82°F, 2% rain, just before the wet season.
Plan your trip
Hotels at their lowest outside peak season, highest on comfortable months. Shoulder seasons offer a good price/climate compromise.
