Throughout November rainfall continues to increase across Sabah and there is a strong chance of thunderstorms, particularly on the north and east coasts. However there will also still be a number of dry days, most likely to occur in the south. There are many benefits of lower visitor-numbers to be enjoyed in November with the National Parks, wildlife sanctuaries and dive sites far more appealing without the hordes.

November sees an increasing amount of rainfall throughout Sarawak and the ever-present possibility of thunderstorms remains, although these are most likely to occur in the late afternoon or evening. However, for the hardy travellers there are many benefits of lower visitor-numbers to be enjoyed in November and the National Parks, wildlife sanctuaries, jungle lodges and caves may be far more appealing without the hordes.
