Vietnam is too long from north to south. Its territory is located in several climatic zones at once. Therefore, it is very difficult to unequivocally answer the question of when the rainy season begins and ends in Vietnam. Tourists who have vacationed in Thailand and know that the subequatorial belt is covered with showers in summer can come to Hanoi in winter and be incredibly surprised. Because on New Year's Eve the weather in Hanoi (and throughout North Vietnam) is not the warmest. It happens and +6 only. Plus, rain and wind. It makes sense to come to the north of the country only from May to September, as well as to the Crimea.
In the center of this state, on the coast, there are such famous resorts as Nha Trang, Da Nang, Da Lat. When planning a trip to this region, it is very important to know when the rainy season starts in Vietnam. Nha Trang covers with showers and typhoons only in December,and this continues until February. It is not the rains that bring discomfort to tourists. They are just short-term, they go mostly at night or a couple of hours during the day, and the tropical sun instantly dries up the beach sand. No, the biggest nuisance during the rainy season in Vietnam is heavy winds and storms. The rough seas make it difficult to swim and completely prohibit diving, as strong currents begin. In addition, the abundance of moisture increases the number of mosquitoes. The best time to visit Central Vietnam is a fairly short period from March to the end of May. Typhoon risk is also likely in June.
The south of the country lies, like Thailand and Cambodia, in a subequatorial climate. This means that tropical (dry) winds come to these territories in winter, and equatorial (wet) winds in summer. Therefore, the resort (which Vietnam is rightfully proud of) Phan Thiet covers the rainy season only in June. The same can be said about the city of Ho Chi Minh City and the adjacent resorts of Sihanouk Ville, Long Hai, Vung Tau, Phu Quoc, Siem Reap. Not that the peak of the season here falls on the winter months - Vietnam, although southern, is still not Thailand. Although it is clear, the temperature is not very high. At night, the thermometer can drop to + 20. However, for those who can hardly endure thirty-degree heat, winter in the vicinity of Ho Chi Minh City is exactly what you need. In addition, such weather is the best accompanying background for all kinds of excursions.
To the south of the countrytourists mainly come in the spring months - then it is already really hot, and the rainy season in Vietnam has not yet begun. The air warms up to 30-33 degrees, and the calm sea of the color of clear azure - up to +28. But on the other hand, this is the peak of the season with all the ensuing consequences. But in the "wet season" resorts located in the mountains of Truong Son enjoy their amazing microclimate. These low ridges prevent the penetration of the monsoons and it is dry here.
Now let's look at what is the rainy season in Vietnam and is it as scary as tour operators draw? Contrary to popular belief, the rains during this period do not pour day-to-day without ceasing. Showers can sweep during daylight hours. The feeling is that the abysses of heaven have opened up: thunder, lightning flashes, rain like a bucket. But an hour later, all this light show ends, the sun peeps out again, and nature just comes to life. Flowers bloom, greenery becomes juicy. Rains only slightly pacify the heat, which drops from +33 to quite comfortable +27. All this rosy picture, of course, does not apply to North Vietnam, where winter (as well as the rainy season) resembles a rainy October in Russia.
