Namibia’s diverse climate makes it very difficult to predict our temperatures. Normally in the hunting season the nights are cool to cold and it warms up during the day, especially when you are in the sun.
Average Daytime Temperatures (Fahrenheit)
Summer in Namibia is normally from September to April with daytime temperatures of 25° C (77F) to 35° C (90F). Winter is normally from May to August and we expect cooler temperatures, especially in the early morning hours. The rainy season extends from November to March, but heavy storms are not really a concern and do not interfere with the hunting.
Long pants, a jacket, and short sleeved shirts are recommended for the hunt. Colors should be natural, green or khaki. Camo clothing for hunting is allowed in Namibia so feel free to bring it. Clothing need not be heavy, but protecting. For the months of May, June, July and August we recommend a heavier jacket. Layering a shirt, light jacket and a heavier more protective jacket, is the best solution. This allows you to adjust easily to the current temperature and level of activity. A pair of good, broken-in, rubber-soled shoes or boots is very important. The laundry is done every day; therefore it is unnecessary to bring a lot of clothes. Pack about three changes and you should be set.
Items not to forget:
* Sun protection
* Sunglasses
* Hat
* Ear plugs
* A good camera
This is a good example of how to dress, you can just grab a jacket when it gets a little cooler and your good to go.
