13, by my count of the map.

Explanation:

Africa, including Madagascar, has more than 10 climate zones according to the Koppen-Geiger climate classification system.

Climate zones of Africa include the hot desert climate of the Sahara Desert, the hot semi-arid climate of the Sahel and the tropical climate of Central and Western Africa. Southern Africa has a transition to semi-tropical or temperate climates, and more desert or semi-arid regions, centered on Namibia, Botswana, and South Africa.
