When to go, and when not to
The best months to visit Luanda are June through September, when rainfall drops to as little as 1mm to 16mm a month and sunshine holds steady between roughly 9.6 and 10.4 hours a day. Temperatures during this stretch are also comparatively mild, with highs ranging from about 24.5C to 28.1C, making it the most comfortable period for walking around or spending time outdoors.
The trade-off is that this same window is peak season, so travelers should expect it to be the busiest and least likely to offer off-season savings. At the other end of the year, April, November, and December bring far heavier rain, with totals reaching around 200mm in April and around 190mm to 199mm in November and December, along with lower sunshine hours, even though these months are the cheapest and quietest for a visit.
