All Months
April through October delivers the best weather – sunny skies, calm seas, and minimal rain. July and August bring the crowds and higher prices, but also the best manta ray sightings at Manta Point. May and September offer the sweet spot of good weather with fewer tourists. The wet season (November-March) turns those dirt roads into muddy nightmares, and rough seas can cancel boat trips entirely. But if you do brave the rainy season, you'll have places like Kelingking Beach almost to yourself. For the best underwater visibility, visit during the dry season when sediment settles. Water temperatures stay warm year-round at 26-28°C, perfect for diving and snorkeling.
