Which season is ideal for traveling to Vietnam?
March through April are the ideal months to visit Vietnam because of the lower rainfall and milder weather.
Vietnam is a country spanning over 1,600 km (1,000 miles) with a vastly different temperature from north to south, ranging from temperate to tropical. The best time to visit the entire nation is usually in the spring, from March to April, when days are generally pleasant, temperatures are reasonable, and rainfall is minimal. In other seasons of the year, the tropical monsoon brings torrential rainfall and sporadic flooding, while summer days can be unbearably humid and muggy due to excessive temperatures.
Local holidays must also be taken into account. The largest public holiday in Vietnam is Tet. It is up to you to choose between visiting Vietnam during quieter seasons of the year or traveling there to witness the Tet celebrations. Tet is observed in January or February, while the native calendar has other occasions for celebration.
These more detailed recommendations will help you determine the ideal time of year to visit Vietnam if you are planning to visit a particular area.

There will be hot winds in this area, so be sure to prepare plenty of water as you travel throughout the day.

When to visit Southern Vietnam?
With a typical sub-equatorial climate, this area is quite similar to the Central region, but often does not suffer from harmful winds from neighboring countries, so it is not too harsh and dry. The South Central Coast has a fairly long dry season, and the rainy season usually comes around summertime in April – August.
Specifically, in places like Ba Ria – Vung Tau, Mui Ne – Phan Thiet, Phu Quoc, and Con Dao, you will enjoy a series of warm sunny days on the long coastline. During much of the wet season, rain can be expected almost daily, though often in short bursts around mid-afternoon.
