August Overview
By August rainfall is almost at its peak. Across the country the flora and fauna is in full bloom and the moats at the Angkor Temples are full of life (avg temp: 29°C). When it rains it is usually for a few hours rather than all-day downpours, although these can also happen.
One benefit of travelling in Cambodia at this time is that the Angkor Temples will be far less crowded.

On the south coast and in more rural regions, such as Ratanakiri, rainfall can be heavier and more prolongued although dry days are still expected.
