November's weather in detail
East Coast
Kuantan, Tioman Island, Perhentian Islands, Terengganu, Redang and Kota Bharu
In November, the north-east monsoon is blowing in from mainland China, bringing with it stormy weather. At this time of year Malaysia's east coast will experience high levels of rainfall, strong winds, and rough sea conditions. Unsurprisingly, most hotels and resorts are closed at this time of year (re-opening in March).
West Coast
Langkawi, Penang, Pangkor
The islands of Langkawi and Pangkor are now heading into their peak months: expect hot and humid conditions throughout November (avg temp: 29 °C), interspersed with the occasional tropical downpour. Penang on average will have slightly higher levels of rainfall than its west coast neighbours in November.
