What is the best time to visit Da Nang?

The best time to visit Da Nang is February to August, and February to April is the sweet spot: dry, clear and comfortable at 20°C to 30°C before the real heat arrives.

June to August is hot, around 30°C to 34°C, and still dry. It is the best beach weather and also the domestic holiday peak, so it is the busiest and priciest stretch.

September to December is the wet and typhoon season. September to November brings the heaviest rain of the year, and beach and boat activities largely stop.

Hoi An is 30 km south and shares the same calendar.
