South Africa has been described as a world in one country – it has mountains, borders two oceans – the Indian and the Atlantic, deserts and wetlands, and a range of climates as well. And a South Africa tour can showcase it all.

We moved to South Africa in 1993, my wife is a local and always described South Africa’s weather as perfect. That is a bit of an exaggeration but it is great in Durban where we often visit. Most times of the year, accommodation in South Africa's beach holiday capital is plentiful and a good value. Watch out for South African school holidays though,(especially the December ones) then the beaches are crowded. The weather forecast in South Africa is generally warm and sunny during the South African summer. But remember Durban's balmy subtropical weather and the warm Indian Ocean helps make it a year round beach destination.

In fact, South Africa’s climate varies depending on the part of the country you are in. Generally the country is warm and sunny. Summers (September through April) can be hot, winters mild with snowfalls in mountainous areas and frost in Johannesburg, Pretoria and other parts of South Africa’s interior. In the winter it will be cold at night in these areas.
