NORTH WEST

About

The summer months bring brief, refreshing afternoon thunderstorms. The sky is often a mardi gras of electrical energy, a bruised sky opened up by flashes of brilliance. While winter brings with it dry, sunny days and chilly nights.

Effectively forming the southern part of the Kalahari Desert, the North West Province offers almost all year-round sunshine. Here it is all about the authentic African bush experience and it is the hot, dry African climate which is truly unique. Nature has blessed this province with breathtaking scenic beauty, rolling fields of maize, golden sunflowers and vast plains of African bushveld; the ideal backdrop for the enjoyment of its outdoor attractions.
