Vietnam weather & when to go: June
Vietnam June weather overview
June is still a good month to travel in Vietnam despite it being a slightly mixed bag in terms of weather. The centre of Vietnam has now hit peak temperatures and remains dry and bright. The south is now in the midst of the wet season with daily downpours to be expected, usually in the afternoon, whilst the north is well into summer mode with high temperatures and rain being the norm. Visitor numbers relatively low and the central beaches still promise a great deal of sunshine. Trekking is off the cards for most, with more rain spreading through the northern mountains & central highlands.

Dry, sunny days and blue skies continue for central Vietnam in June. The beaches of Hoi An, Danang and Nha Trang are at their best (avg temp: 30 °C); further north Hue is also enjoying good weather.

The south is now firmly into its wet season. However this is unlikely to be severe, and whilst the showers will be slightly heavier than in previous months you can still expect plenty of dry and bright daylight hours (avg temp: 28°C). June marks the start of Green Turtle nesting season on the beaches of Con Dao.
