The best time to go to Fougamou is during the dry season, which runs from June to September.
During these months, you'll experience less rainfall and cooler temperatures, making it much more comfortable for exploring the region. The roads are also generally in better condition, which is a significant advantage given the local infrastructure. This period is ideal for those planning outdoor activities or looking to travel more extensively around the Ngounié Province.
For travellers interested in wildlife spotting, particularly around the nearby Waka National Park, the dry season offers clearer viewing opportunities as animals tend to gather around fewer water sources.
