Philippines weather & when to go: June
June overview
By June, the wet season is well underway throughout most of the Philippines, with heavy rainfall expected across the majority of the country. The southern islands of Bohol, Cebu and Siargao whilst not completely dry, experience less rain than the northern and central regions.
June's weather in detail
On a more positive note, the rains bring with them some attractive changes to the landscape: by now the famous Chocolate Hills of Bohol no longer have their distinctive brown colouration but will have turned a shade of green and the rice terraces of Banaue are at their greenest.
Average temperatures and humidity levels drop slightly from the sticky heat of previous months, but highs of 30°C are still common around the capital of Manila.
