Phu Quoc in August

One of the rainiest months. Showers are frequent, so an umbrella and sandals stay in your bag. The sea is rough, so evenings of massage and the night market become the core of the day. Room deals are easy to find.

It was a hot month: 30°C by day and 26°C after dark. Daily swings were small, about 5°C, with no sudden drop at dusk. Rain came so often (19 days on average) that dry stretches were short and worth using. The average is 19, but individual years ran from 14 (2011) to 28 (2006).

24 days past 30°C made it a month for early starts and a long lunch indoors. Rain days averaged 20 mm each, so when it rained it rained properly.

Typhoons i No tropical storm passed within 300 km in this month over the last 20 years. Typhoons: December
