It depends on the time of year.Generally throughout the year, Tsetse are not an issue when on foot. They react to fast moving objects, so during boat transfers they can be more prevalent. Avoid dark coloured clothing, particularly navy and black. The Tsetse fly inGabon typically do not carry Sleeping Sickness.

The climate follows four main seasons. The short dry season, from December to January, brings clear blue skies and very little rainfall. It is followed by the long wet season, from February to April, known for heavy rain and warm temperatures. Next comes the long dry season, from May to September, marked by overcast skies, no rain, and smooth, pleasant mornings. Finally, the short wet season, from October to November, features heavy rainfall followed by sunny spells.
The year is divided into four distinct seasons, and packing the right clothes makes all the difference:
Short dry season (December – January)
Clear blue skies and very little rain. Hot and dry.
- Pack light cotton or linen clothes, a hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, and comfortable sandals.
Long wet season (February – April)
Expect heavy rainfall and warm temperatures.
- Bring a raincoat or poncho, waterproof shoes or rain sandals, quick-dry breathable clothes, and a waterproof bag for your belongings.
Long dry season (May – September)
Overcast skies, no rain, and mild mornings.
- A light jacket or sweater for the morning, comfortable daytime clothing, and walking shoes or sneakers.
Short wet season (October – November)
Alternates between heavy rain and sunshine.
- Prepare for both: a light raincoat or umbrella, easy-to-layer outfits, and breathable, rain-appropriate shoes.
