In Kenya during the spring season, it is important to pack lightweight and breathable clothing due to the warm and humid weather.

Consider bringing loose-fitting tops and bottoms made from natural fabrics like cotton or linen to stay comfortable in the heat.

It is also advisable to pack a mix of short-sleeve shirts, long pants, and skirts to account for temperature fluctuations throughout the day. Additionally, don't forget to pack a hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen to protect yourself from the strong African sun.

Remember to dress modestly when visiting religious sites or rural areas out of respect for the local customs and traditions.
