Equatorial Guinea in June

June through September offers your best shot at decent weather. The dry season means fewer torrential downpours and more navigable roads to the national parks. Temperatures hover around 80°F with lower humidity - still hot, but bearable. October through May brings heavy rains that can wash out roads and make wildlife spotting nearly impossible. Here's the trade-off: dry season coincides with higher accommodation prices and the few organized tours that exist. But honestly, any time you visit, pack rain gear. Equatorial Guinea sits right on the equator, so expect afternoon thunderstorms even in dry season. The volcanic islands can be 10 degrees cooler than the mainland, which feels like a blessing when you're trekking through rainforest.
