February is a dry season for holidays, this month is suitable for the southern resorts of the country, this is where the tourist season begins.

April is a small conclusion to the dry holiday season in Vietnam. The northern part - Hanoi, is still colder than the adjacent territories of the country; here they still prefer to wear jackets and windbreakers in the evenings. It is worth noting Ho Chi Minh City, the average temperature here ranges from + 27 + 29 degrees, in the evening + 24, everything that concerns the southern part, here you can safely sunbathe and swim, the number of rainy days does not exceed 5-6 times for the entire April.

Holidays in Vietnam in May

May is the beginning of the wet season, dense clouds gradually begin to envelop the entire territory of the country, you can hide from the clouds in the central parts and nearby regions, one of which is Nha Trang, the feeling of the wet season here begins to be felt only in mid-May, when the humidity in the air reaches its peak, about 82 percent, by the way, tourists who do not tolerate humidity do not recommend going here for this month.

As for the rains, Nha Trang has about one week of rains for the whole month, which usually fall at night, as for other regions, the number of rains here has already been about two weeks for the whole month. All rains last for a maximum of about 2 hours, this does not bring much discomfort, so we do not worry about a spoiled vacation in advance. It is especially worth noting the first two weeks of May in Nha Trang, this time is the peak of humidity, many Vietnamese cannot stand such weather and leave to cool off in Da Lat.

• Phan Thiet + 35C, water temperature + 29C
• Nha Trang + 32C, water temperature + 28C
• Phu Quoc + 32C, water temperature + 28C

Holidays in Vietnam in June

What I do not advise you is visiting the country in June, the whole territory, with the exception of small areas, is covered by the rainy season, if suddenly you have to go to Vietnam, then for recreation the central parts will be more worthy options with the least amount of rain, I mean Da Nang, Hoi An, Kylao Cham. These areas are still less prone to rain, the main showers will come here only in July, but for now we have time to rest here. As for Phan Thiet and Nha Trang, showers begin to fall here, but no more than two hours a day, showers are especially pronounced towards the end of June. As for the south, it rains in full here, and the stuffiness is simply unbearable, I recommend completely abandoning the south for June.

• Hanoi + 33C
• Phan Thiet + 33C, water temperature + 29C
• Nha Trang + 33C, water temperature + 28C
• Phu Quoc + 32C, water temperature + 28C
• Ho Chi Minh City + 33C

Vacation in Vietnam in July

The only area that has not yet been covered with heavy rainfall is the central part of the country. I won't recommend you anything about this month, it rains almost everywhere after lunch and until dinner. Phu Quoc can cover for several days, like the entire south of Vietnam, we are not in any way rushing here. As for the humidity, it is at its peak; the Vietnamese find the only place to hide in Dalat. The flow of Russian tourists for July dries up and is the lowest in terms of the number of visits to Vietnam.

• Hanoi + 33C
• Phan Thiet + 33C, water temperature + 29C
• Nha Trang + 32C, water temperature + 28C
• Phu Quoc + 32C, water temperature + 28C
• Ho Chi Minh City + 33C

Vacation in Vietnam in August

The rainy season in Vietnam is at its peak and declining, but not everywhere. Here I will start from where it rains least in the month of August, the central part still belongs to such territories, namely Danang, Hoi An. In terms of rainfall, these cities are least susceptible to rainfall, namely, almost a week and a half out of the whole month falls on showers and thunderstorms that occur in the evening or at night.

As for Phan Thiet and Ho Chi Minh City, almost all of August the sky is covered with clouds, Phu Quoc Island is accompanied by gusty winds and downpours.As for Nha Trang, for the entire month of my stay, I counted only 7 days with rains, which rained at least 2 hours, here it is worth clarifying, every evening in Nha Trang clouds are gathering over the mountains and rains occasionally reach Nha Trang itself, but if you look at mountains after sunset, then steadily every evening the mountains begin to be illuminated by lightning, it is very beautiful, but the photographs did not work out for me.

• Hanoi + 32C
• Phan Thiet + 33C, water temperature + 29C
• Nha Trang + 33C, water temperature + 28C
• Phu Quoc + 30C, water temperature + 28C
• Ho Chi Minh City + 33C

Holidays in Vietnam in September

The rainy season begins to go south and the northern part gets rid of the showers first. As for the central part of the country, where until now there was the least average rainfall, the peak of heavy rains begins here with frequent flooding, we completely forget about this territory in September! As for the rest in Phan Thiet and Nha Trang, we definitely choose the second option, we do not listen to anyone at the expense of Phan Thiet, especially the tour managers, otherwise you will spend the whole vacation, with the exception of rare sunny days, at the hotel.

• Hanoi + 31C
• Phan Thiet + 33C, water temperature + 28C
• Nha Trang + 32C, water temperature + 27C
• Phu Quoc + 30C, water temperature + 28C
• Ho Chi Minh City + 33C

Rest in October

The northern part is almost completely free from precipitation, Hanoi and Halong can be visited without fear of rains, they happen here, but 5-7 days maximum. The central part is dominated by gusty winds and typhoons, tourists are not allowed here. As for the south, we are going to rest only on Phan Thiet and Nha Trang, these are the only two places in October when it is better to relax in Vietnam, but again, Phan Thiet is usually dominated by winds. As for the underwater world, I advise you to visit Halong Bay in October. Also, October begins to attract a huge number of tourists who are fond of surfing, such can be found in Phan Thiet, October here is a windy season with waves, if you want a calm sea, then we take a course to Nha Trang.

• Hanoi + 29C
• Phan Thiet + 33C, water temperature + 28C
• Nha Trang + 30C, water temperature + 27C
• Phu Quoc + 30C, water temperature + 27C
• Ho Chi Minh City + 33C

Rest in November

The northern parts of the country are preparing for the winter period, if the sun hides behind the clouds, then the temperature can drop to +18, as soon as the sun begins to warm, the thermometer rises to +25 degrees, as for precipitation for October, it is almost zero here and humidity is almost not felt. As for tourist cities, if you decide to visit Vietnam in November, then forget about Nchang, it is enveloped in the rainy season, and we head either to Phan Thiet or Phu Quoc.

As for Phu Quoc Island, at this point in time it is an ideal option for the holiday season in Vietnam. For those who love surfing and windsurfing, you already know where to stay in Vietnam for such an activity - the Phan Thiet coast.

• Hanoi + 26C
• Phan Thiet + 32C, water temperature + 25C
• Nha Trang + 29C, water temperature + 24C
• Phu Quoc + 30C, water temperature + 27C
• Ho Chi Minh City + 32C

Holidays in Vietnam in December

The central part is still influenced by the rainy season, if you can't wait to find yourself in Da Nang, then I recommend the end of December or the beginning of January, for this period the elements calm down completely and a tourist flow from all over the world begins to come here. As for the ideal pastime, the holiday season in Vietnam in December will be behind Phu Quoc Island, it is here that the most optimal conditions for sunbathing and swimming in the sea will be. Then it is worth considering Phan Thiet and finally looking towards Nha Trang, where the sea is not very calm for the month of December, besides, the amount of precipitation is much higher compared to the two previous options, and winds are also not excluded.

• Hanoi + 23C
• Phan Thiet + 32C, water temperature + 25C
• Nha Trang + 27C, water temperature + 24C
• Phu Quoc + 30C, water temperature + 27C
• Ho Chi Minh City + 32C

Where can I find low-cost package tours or hotel reservations?

All my friends, exactly like me, use only one service for booking package tours, I'm not going to paint and advertise about them, I just use and book package tours, because my pocket doesn't rustle very much. Having tried many tour booking services, I found the only option that gives the cheapest prices for buying tours, so I recommend it to you too! Travelata tours booking service. As for saving money, do not forget that it will be more profitable for someone to buy a package tour, while someone will book separately cheap plane tickets and find great places in hotels in Vietnam at affordable prices. Moreover, if you go to the flight booking page, you will find two services (Aviasales and Scyscanner), look for inexpensive options with both options and book immediately.

When is the best time to relax in Vietnam?

When is the best time to relax in Vietnam? Answering this question, it is worth breaking the rest into the seasons of visiting tourists, and there are only two of them - this is the high holiday season in Vietnam and the low season. Each season will be the best for a vacation in a certain area, so I will consider each option in more detail.

High season

The period from December to April can be attributed to this time of visit, it is during this period that the highest level of visits by tourists from different countries of the world comes. It's not a secret for anyone that you will have to shell out a lot more money for a voucher or self-booking a hotel, as prices soar and do not fall for a long time. I recommend visiting the northern part this season for sightseeing and Phu Quoc Island for New Year's Eve and seaside holidays.

Low season

The low season for holidays in Vietnam starts from May to October, the prices for vouchers are falling slightly, and a large number of vouchers at last minute prices appear, by the way, at the bottom of the article, you will find a service for booking tours at cheap prices, which I have already used several times and I advise you , there really are last minute deals at very attractive prices.

Here it is worth noting the exact choice of a place for rest, since rains prevail throughout the territory, I recommend considering Nha Trang, especially in August and September, after October we look towards Phan Thiet. Mid-May, June and July are ideal for visiting Da Nang and Coyana. January and February are considered the most ideal places to visit the southern coast of the country.

When is the best time to relax in Vietnam? As many tourists say - "vacation in Asia will always be great, regardless of the season." Well, if the rains scare you, then we consider the high season, if your vacation dictates the rules to you, then I recommend planning your vacation in advance and relying on the weather in Vietnam. Well, we figured out the weather, I reviewed all the seasons of holidays in Vietnam, now you only need to decide which month is right for you, by the way, I will be grateful if you click on the icons of social networks and share the article with your friends.
