On holiday in Botswana.

The South African country of Botswana is a fairly popular holiday destination among people who want to spot wild animals during a safari. A good planning about when you travel to Botswana is important if you want to travel comfortably and spot enough animals. The country, which lies at an average altitude of about a thousand metres, has two types of climate: the warm desert climate (type BWh) in the south-west and within the Central Kalahari Game Reserve, and the warm steppe climate (type BSh) elsewhere in Botswana.

The climate in Botswana

Botswana is a country in the south of Africa, directly above the centre of South Africa. The largest part of Botswana is the Kalahari Desert, which, based on the amount of precipitation, is only partly real desert. The rest is actually a kind of semi-desert, which in northeastern direction changes into steppe-like hilly areas. Botswana has two types of climate: the warm desert climate (type BWh) and the warm steppe climate (type BSh). The winter months are rather warm and very dry. In the summer, the chances of precipitation increase and the temperature in many places reaches tropical values of thirty degrees or more.
