Planning for Kariba

Climate and seasons

Kariba is low-lying, very hot and humid in summer, with a short rain season and a warm dry winter.

  • Heat and humidity are severe in summer, and shade governs whether outdoor areas get used.
  • Steep ground means erosion control and retaining feature in most schemes.
  • Winters are warm and dry — the peak season for lodge grounds to look their best.
  • Wildlife moves through many properties, so planting and edging are chosen to tolerate it.

Local conditions in Kariba

  • Steep sites need retaining, terracing and planted banks to hold soil through storms.
  • Lodge and holiday properties need low-maintenance grounds that look presentable between visits.
  • Shade structures and shade planting extend usable outdoor hours substantially.
  • Paving and decking are chosen for heat underfoot as well as appearance.

Property types we work on in Kariba
