Every season has it's benefits
Essentially it is consistently sunny, warm and
humid! Cambodia has a tropical climate following
the south east asia rainy seasons with very little temperature variation throughout the year. There are two monsoons in Cambodia;
the dry season runs from November to April and the South Westerly wet monsoon from May to October.
The daily nature
of the wet monsoon in Cambodia is quite regular with clear, dry mornings and 2 or 3 hours of rain in the afternoon. This pattern
accommodates excellently sightseeing in a hot country so you need not limit your time in Cambodia to just the dry monsoon.
Leave your cold weather clothes behind!
The average minimum temperature remains over 20°C and the coldest ever recorded in Cambodia was 14°C. However be prepared
for high humidity and strong sun. | | Monsoons

Everything is lush
