Zimbabwe in March

Africa's best authentic tailor-made safaris

The rainy season ends in March, and while game viewing is still limited, excellent birding opportunities await.

Sunny days become more consistent, and large pools of water become scarce, so wildlife is slowly becoming easier to spot in parks. Although in limited numbers, there is a chance for you to see some animals.

Many migratory birds are still present in March, making birding safaris rewarding.

If you are lucky enough, you might spot larger game life in Matusadona National Park. When visiting, you can see African fish eagle, giant kingfisher, glossy ibis, lilac-breasted roller, and meves’s starling.

With rain still present, migratory birds are often still around. Some migrate from Asia or Europe to Africa, while others migrate within Africa.

Weather in March

March is a shoulder month, as its weather mirrors February’s. During the day, temperatures often reach a high of 30 degrees.

Highlight Park to Visit in March

Victoria Falls

This waterfall is located between Zambia and Zimbabwe. It’s a UNESCO World Heritage Site with strong cultural, historical, and scientific significance.

The water flow is at its most dramatic this time of year, and nearby, you’ll get drenched, which can be part of a fantastic Victoria Falls experience. If you prefer, you can admire the waterfall from a distance.

Victoria Falls is a photographer’s haven for capturing bird life. It hosts over 400 bird species, and the region often welcomes different migrant species.
