🌤️ Best Time to Visit Phu Quoc & Da Nang

🗺️ If You’re Traveling North to South (Hanoi → Hue → Hoi An → Ho Chi Minh City)

Best Months: November to March

• Why:
  • Cool, dry weather in the north (Hanoi, Ha Long Bay)
  • Sunny skies in central Vietnam (Hue, Da Nang, Hoi An)
  • Warm and dry in the south (Ho Chi Minh City, Mekong Delta)
• Bonus: Lunar New Year (Tet) usually falls in late January or early February—festive but busy!

🏖️ If You’re Focusing on the South (Ho Chi Minh City, Mekong Delta, Phu Quoc)

Best Months: December to April

• Why:

• Dry season with minimal rain
• Ideal for beach days, boat tours, and city exploration

🏞️ If You’re Exploring the North (Hanoi, Sapa, Ha Long Bay)

Best Months: October to April

• Why:

• Crisp air and clear skies
• Great for trekking in Sapa and cruising Ha Long Bay

Avoid October to December in Da Nang due to heavy rains and occasional typhoons. For a smooth family adventure, December to March offers great weather in both destinations with fewer crowds and plenty of sunshine.
