August marks the dry season in Brazil, which coincides with the last of the country’s winter months.
Although there can be regional variations in the weather, it is generally warm and sunny, making August one of the best months to explore Brazil’s fantastic nature and wildlife.
The Pantanal, the world’s largest wetland, offers insight into one of Brazil’s unique ecosystems. Besides the dry season providing warm weather and less rain, the month is also one of the best times to witness the thriving wildlife, such as birds and reptiles. The lack of water brings animals to the remaining water sources, making them easier to spot. If you dream of seeing South America’s largest cat, the jaguar, your chances are best in August, as the reduced water in the wetlands draws jaguars to the riverbanks.
Although it rains throughout the year in the majestic Amazon rainforest, August is one of the months with the least rainfall. If you wish to explore the rainforest on foot with a hike, the dry season months are the prime time for it.

Australia is located in the southern hemisphere, which means the seasons are the opposite of Europe’s. Therefore, it’s winter in Australia in August.

Here, you can experience the world’s largest coral reef, the Great Barrier Reef, where you might be fortunate enough to see humpback whales in August, or visit the 135 million-year-old Daintree Rainforest, where, for example, you might spot the world’s third largest bird, the cassowary.

If you’re dreaming of a paradise island vibe in August, Bali in Indonesia is the perfect destination.

Uganda is near the equator and therefore has stable and warm temperatures year-round. August marks the end of Uganda’s second dry season and is one of the driest months of the year.
The country is particularly known for the opportunity to see wild mountain gorillas in Bwindi Impenetrable Forest National Park. In August, the trails in the national park are dry and easier to navigate than during the rainy seasons, providing good conditions for spotting the majestic gorillas.
The dry season is also a great time to go on safari in Uganda, for example in Lake Mburo National Park and Queen Elizabeth National Park, where the animals are easier to spot as they gather around the waterholes, which become increasingly attractive as the dry season progresses.
Experience the absolute highlights of Uganda; Lake Victoria, the world’s second largest freshwater lake, the Equator and the 3 national parks Queen Elizabeth, Bwindi Impenetrable and Lake Mburu.

During the dry season, you’re likely to witness Tanzania’s wildlife and perhaps tick off The Big Five on your safari bucket list. At this time of year, the vegetation in the national parks is sparser since it’s been months since the rainy season, making it harder for animals to hide.
Combine your safari holiday with a tour to Zanzibar, where you can process all the wild impressions under the palms on the island’s pristine white sandy beaches.

August is a wonderful month to explore Malaysia and the Malaysian part of Borneo.
Although weather can vary greatly across Malaysia, August is, for example, a good month to visit the islands off Malaysia’s east coast, such as Tioman Island and the Perhentian Islands.
This part of the country experiences its dry season in August, offering excellent beach conditions with plenty of sunshine and dry weather. Both the Perhentian Islands and Tioman Island provide great opportunities for snorkelling or diving during the dry season when the water is clearest.
Borneo generally sees rain all year round, but August is amongst its driest months, making it a great time to explore the island’s unique nature and wildlife, for example, in Sabah’s magical rainforests and Bako National Park in Sarawak.

August falls within Botswana’s dry season, also known as the country’s winter.
The days are warm and sunny, while the mornings and evenings can be cool. The dry weather results in sparser vegetation, making wildlife easier to spot, especially as they gather at the few remaining waterholes.

Kenya, one of the world’s best safari destinations, is an ideal travel destination in August.
Like many other East African countries, Kenya also experiences its dry season in August. The mild weather with very little rain makes it ideal for going on safari in many exceptional natural areas, such as the Masai Mara, Amboseli, Tsavo East, and Tsavo West.
In the Masai Mara, you can witness one of nature’s most spectacular events as hundreds of thousands of wildebeest and zebras cross the Mara River during the great migration. Many consider August to be one of the best months to experience this.
In the numerous national parks, the dry season means there are fewer water sources for the animals. As a result, they often gather in large herds around watering holes, where you can see them drinking water—for instance, large flocks of flamingos gather at Lake Nakuru or elephants in Amboseli.
After a safari holiday in Kenya, you could round off your adventure with a relaxing stay in Mauritius, where white sandy beaches and crystal-clear waters await. August is one of the best months on the island, offering warm temperatures and a gentle breeze that makes the climate pleasant. You might also choose to combine Kenya with a tour to Madagascar.
