The cheapest time to be in Abidjan is in June when there is a lot of rain pouring over the city. Although you can come to visit the city during this time and massively save on the travelling and accommodation expenses, there would not be much to explore as it rains 22 days at an average during this month and can cause flooding in many parts of the city. Clearly, a rainy vacation is less than ideal. How about coming to the town by the end of September and leave by mid-October for a cheaper trip to Abidjan? It is when the rains are about to return to the city, and with the Holiday season just around the corner, most tourists postpone their travel plans during these times, lowering the demand and thus lowering the prices.

The centre of the city is about 25 kilometres from the airport, and as you hop from one island to the next, it would take 40 minutes to reach your hotel in downtown Abidjan.

The best time to come to Abidjan is from December to February, and during the month of August. During the December to February timeframe, there is little to no rain, and the weather remains warm and pleasant. Due to the moderating effect of the ocean, the temperature never really drastically fluctuates throughout the year, and the daily mean temperature is a balmy 26°C. So the only thing that could affect your vacation is rain. Even though the rainy season in Abidjan is from May to November, there is a climatic pattern called the Benguela Current which occurs in August. The Benguela Current takes away all the heat and the rain, making August the driest and coolest month in the year to visit the city. While you might experience some rainy days, the average high temperature drops down to just 30°C during August.
