June Overview

By June rain is expected throughout the country. Temperatures remain high (Luang Prabang & Vientiane avg temp: 25°C, further south avg temp: 27°C) ensuring that much of the time the rain is short lived and quickly replaced by blue skies and brilliant sunshine.

In the south the rain can last longer and be more constant although plenty of dry days are still expected. The return of the rain means that the lush landscapes start to reappear and the souths impressive waterfalls start to impress fully once again.

Despite the rain June is a great month to visit Laos as plenty of sunshine is still expected and the visitor numbers are far lower than in previous months.

Boun Bang Fai (Rocket Festival): (May/Jun). Rockets are fired into the air to encourage the much required rain. The date varies from one village to the next.
