Spring in South Africa typically runs from September to November and is characterized by mild, comfortable temperatures and breathtakingly beautiful flora.

In fact, this sight is so spectacular that many native South Africans make an annual pilgrimage to the Western and Northern Capes to experience this phenomenon year after year.

Spring is a fantastic season for a safari. With the arrival of the rains, the landscape is transformed and is both a photographer's fantasy and a birdwatcher's delight.
