Best Time to Visit Beachfront Resorts in Cambodia for Good Weather
Cambodia’s Weather: What You Need to Know
Cambodia, like its close neigbours, has a tropical climate which means two main seasons:
- A Dry Season (November – April) 🌞
- A Green Season (May – October) 🌧
The country stays warm year-round, with temperatures ranging from 24°C to 35°C (75°F to 95°F). However, if you want clear blue skies and calm waters at the beach, the dry season is your best bet.
The Best Time for a Beachfront Resort Stay in Cambodia
1. Peak Season: December, January & February – Perfect Weather 🌤️
If you’re looking for the absolute best weather, visit between December and February. This is when:
✔️ The sky is clear and blue
✔️ Temperatures are very pleasant (they could go as low as 16°C) with an average of 25°C
✔️ Humidity is low, making it comfortable to explore
✔️ The sea is calm, perfect for swimming, snorkeling, and boat trips
It is, of course, the busiest time of the year, so book your stay at Koh Russey Resort in advance to secure the best rooms and deals.
2. Shoulder Season: March & April – Hot but Beautiful ☀️
March and April are still part of the dry season but tend to get quite hot. The temperatures can hit 42°C or more, but if you can stand the heat, you can enjoy:
✔️ A lot less tourists compared to peak season
✔️ Beautiful sunsets over the ocean
✔️ Warm waters for swimming and diving
This is a great time to relax by the pool with a cold coconut and soak in the island vibes.
3. Rainy Season: May to October – Lush and Serene 🌦️
The rainy season, also called “green season” by the local hotel industry, doesn’t mean non-stop rain! In fact, it often rains in short bursts, mostly in the late afternoon or evening. Here’s what you can expect:
✔️ Lush green landscapes – everything looks fresh and vibrant, especially in the morning. Humidity can be very much present though
✔️ Lower prices – great for budget travelers or to get superb deals.
✔️ Less tourists also, so you get a peaceful, private experience. Though more and more people start to enjoy this season.
While there might be some rain, the mornings are usually sunny, and the beaches are still beautiful. If you don’t mind the occasional tropical downpour, you can find some amazing deals with us.
Also note that these showers also tend to be somewhat refreshing.
