August is your best month to see the dramatic Mara River crossings in the Serengeti or Masai Mara.
- Weather
August is the hottest month of the year in Serengeti National Park, with average temperatures ranging from 14°C (57.2°F) to 26°C (78.8°F). August is a hot and humid month when the dry season comes into high gear.
- Migratory Movements
Wildebeest herds will continue their search for lusher, greener vegetation, attempting to cross the Mara River's treacherous, crocodile-infested waters.
Crocodiles are among the predators encountered.
- River crossings
If you want to see river crossings, August is the best month to go. The animals will cross a foreign border between Tanzania's Serengeti and Kenya's Masai Mara.
- Accommodation options
Book early on both sides of the Mara River. The Olakira Camp, Sayari Mara, and Mara River mobile camps offer a once-in-a-lifetime migratory safari.
