Victoria Falls in April

Africa's best authentic tailor-made safaris

Victoria Falls in April

Climate

The rainy season ends in April, a much drier month than March. The temperature drops slightly but is still warm, with daytime temperatures in the high 20°C/68°F.

Highlights of the Month

In April, the Zambezi River is extremely full, so Victoria Falls is in full flow. It’s an excellent time to travel to the falls if you want to see the natural spectacle at its most dramatic. However, the spray sent up by the waterfalls can make it difficult to see the falls at foot level, so at this time of year, a helicopter ride will give you the best view. The views from the Zambian side are also better during this full-flow period.

April is the last month to spot migratory bird species before they move in the dry winter.
