From April to September the weather is hot with occasional rain and from October to March the weather is quite pleasant.

In particular, the summer here is about 34 degrees Celsius and can reach 38 degrees Celsius. But thanks to the location of the closed sea, the heat is significantly reduced and visitors will feel more comfortable when traveling on the island and participating in beach activities such as swimming, kayaking, snorkeling, volleyball. In addition, cruising at this time will give you an enjoyable experience, with the sun, the beautiful scenery and the clear blue water.

On the other hand, the weather here is colder in winter with temperatures as low as 13 degrees Celsius, sometimes down to 5 degrees Celsius. However, despite its proximity to the sea, Halong Bay rarely experiences heavy rain storms.
