BEST TIME TO VISIT LAKE MANYARA NATIONAL PARK

• The best time to visit Lake Manyara National Park is during the dry season, from June to October. As the rains recede, the lake's water levels decrease, attracting the famous pink flamingos. This season also ensures clear skies and excellent visibility for the park’s other wildlife.
• Alternatively, the short rainy season from November to December brings lush greenery and fewer crowds. The park transforms into a haven for birdwatchers during this time.
