Port Louis in August

August in Port Louis: average highs of 24°C, lows of 20°C and 11 hours of sunshine a day. A starting point for planning around the historical weather.

August in Port Louis, Mauritius, brings average daily highs of 24°C and overnight lows of 20°C in the 2016–2025 historical record. Pack clothes you can layer as conditions change. The average leaves room for both warmer and cooler days, so a flexible walking plan is more useful than deciding every outdoor stop before you arrive.

In the record, at least 1 mm of rain or snow falls on 11 of 31 days on average, a daily chance of 35%. Give wet-weather alternatives a proper place in the itinerary. Arrange outdoor plans so you can move them between days, and pack a rain layer rather than relying on a completely dry run of weather.

The calculated day length, sunrise to sunset, averages about 11 hours. Sunshine averages 11 hours a day. Use the daylight window to plan the length of excursions, and check local sunrise and sunset times for the dates of your stay. Sunshine is a separate measure, and those hours need not arrive in one uninterrupted stretch.

For a culture-focused visit, group the places you want to see into manageable areas, with time between stops. Check each venue's opening dates before fixing the order. If food is a reason for the trip, leave time around meals rather than filling every gap with another journey. Check the places you choose for current opening hours.

The following month, September, has a similar average daily high of 24°C. Its historical rain-day chance is 40%, compared with 35% this month. If your dates are flexible, compare those trade-offs with the kind of days you want. Neither set of averages predicts the conditions of one particular holiday.
