When to go, and when not to
The best months to visit are January, March, May, and November, when temperatures are milder than the summer peak and sunshine hours are generally solid. January sees highs around 19.0C with modest rainfall, March brings warmer days near 22.5C with more sunshine, and November offers pleasant highs around 24.8C with comparatively low rainfall of 75mm. May is also strong for weather overall, though it is considerably wetter, with about 290mm of rain and highs near 28.4C.
The trade-off is that these same months are also the peak season, so travelers may find higher demand during these periods. Those seeking lower costs and fewer crowds can look to the off-season months of February, July, and August, but July and August bring the hottest conditions, with highs around 33C, alongside continued rain and the ongoing possibility of typhoons through the broader May-to-November season.
