Cameroon Cameroon in August
Posted: Fri June 19, 2009 10:47 PM UTC
Hi,
I'm going to Cameroon for 5-6 weeks, end of July & August. Everything I read tells me this is the worst time to go because of the rains. Is is really that difficult to get around the country during these months? Are there any activities I can't do? (Mt. Cameroon, Waza National park...). Could someone advise me as to what kind of travel & tourism is possible in July/August?
Thank you.

Due to extreme climatic changes the World is experiencing at the moment, trying to predict the weather can be difficult because of local, on the day variations.
Most places now are seeing weather conditions well outside the norm.
The information below should be used as a guide only.

Here is the average weather for Yaounde for this time of year.
Enjoy your holiday.

July.
High 81f / 27c
Low 66f / 19c
Rain 3.30in / 83.0mm
Rain days 12
Hours of sun 3
Daylight hours 12
UV level 11 = Extreme
Humidity = Moderate

I don't think that it is that harsh.I have spent most of my summer vacations in cameroon .There are those days when it is soo rainy ,but it won't be that difficult.
Just go with some boots or something like that.
U will be allright.
U can do anything there in July/August.It just depends on the cities

HEllo ,

I am actually in Cameroon right now, working in Yaounde as an engineer after graduating in the USA.

I can guarantee that the weather won't be a problem. Besides, you can always go to the beach in Kribi or in the north to visit Mont Cameroon and it should be sunny there.

Honestly Cameroon is the last country in wich you could complain about the weather. It is true that it has been rainning unusually those last days, but it is still nothing compared to the rains in London for example where I have lived for 9 months.

So you are welcome to Cameroon. If you need any more help or have anymore question, feel free to contact me

Hi,
Cameroon has two seasons the dry and the rainy season.It's not the worst time to visit cameroon because every activity is going on well as usual.
It is not difficult to get around the country because there cars like jeeps or 4x4 for the rainy season.
There is no activity you can't do, visiting all this places is very possible.
If you are still to come then just contact me and allis done.
Thanks
