Best time of the year to visit Pangani

You may be planning to travel to Pangani, and asking yourself, when is the best time to visit Pangani. Here we share with you some ideas of when is best to visit Pangani. About 55km south of Tanga is the small Swahili outpost of Pangani. It rose from obscure beginnings as just one of many coastal dhow ports to become a terminus of the caravan route from Lake Tanganyika, a major export point for slaves and ivory, and one of the largest ports between Bagamoyo and Mombasa. Sisal and copra plantations were established in the area, and several European missions and exploratory journeys to the interior began from here. By the end of the 19th century, the focus had shifted to Tanga and Dar es Salaam, and Pangani again faded into anonymity. Today the sleepy, dilapidated town makes for an intriguing step back into history. To characterize how pleasant the weather is in Pangani throughout the year, we compute two travel scores. The tourism score favors clear, rainless days with perceived temperatures between 65°F and 80°F. Based on this score, the best time of year to visit Pangani for general outdoor tourist activities is from mid-June to mid-September, with a peak score in the last week of July. The beach/pool score favors clear, rainless days with perceived temperatures between 75°F and 90°F. Based on this score, the best time of year to visit Pangani for hot-weather activities is from early June to early October, with a peak score in the last week of August. Number of excursions and day tours, including multiday tours can be arranged, with accommodation as well included on the tour.
