The northern Sahara region of Mali receives virtually no rain
and so can be visited at any time, although in summer months
it becomes very hot. Further south in the Sahel region, there
are rains from June until September. Before this it is hot
and humid and the early part of the year is prone to hot,
dusty winds. This really leaves October until February as
the best time for a visit, although in January and February
the wind is sometimes unpleasant.
