WEATHER
South Africa boasts some of the best warm sunny weather all year round, although we do have winter for around 3 – 4 months of the year, we enjoy sunshine 90% of the time. This makes South Africa and the Western Cape Province one of the best locations for Motorcycle tours and travel.
The Cape region has a mild Mediterranean climate, while the rest of the country has more sub-tropical climates. During this tour, it is not the rainy season, so expect sunny days that reach about 25 – 28 degrees during the day and about 18 degrees at night. It is advisable to wear sunblock throughout the day to combat the African fiery sun and for those who feel the chill easily, bring a light jersey/jacket for at night.
