5. Mauritania

Average annual temperature: 27.6 °C – 81.68 °F

Another Saharan country in Western Africa, Mauritania exhibits similar temperature oscillations like its eastern neighbor, Niger. While it does have an Atlantic ocean strip, 90 percent of Mauritania is still a desert. That is why temperatures between May and September don’t drop below 30 °C or 86 °F, and unlike in Niger, they don’t drop below 20 °C or 68 °F neither.
