The Best Time to Visit Lake Manyara National Park is during the dry season, from June to October, when wildlife is more concentrated around the park’s water sources, making it easier to spot elephants, giraffes, and other animals. The weather is also pleasant, perfect for safaris and enjoying the park's beautiful landscapes. For birdwatchers, the wet season from November to April is ideal, as migratory birds, including flocks of flamingos, flock to the lake’s shores.
