Climate

Despite its size, the Togolese climate is diverse, ranging from tropical to savannah. The south of the country is humid, and temperatures can range from 75°F to 90°F (23°C to 32°C), while the north, described as semi-arid, experiences greater extremes, with temperatures ranging from 65°F to 100°F (18°C to over 38°C). The south experiences two rainy seasons, from March to early July and September to October, while April to August is the wettest time north of the Togo Mountains. Evenings can be cool in all regions, and dust storms are not uncommon. The best time to travel to Togo is in August, early September, and from November to April, as these are the driest periods.
