Best Time to Visit Cambodia

The best time to visit Cambodia is from November to March. During these months, the weather is cool and dry, perfect for exploring the temples of Angkor and experiencing the lively cities of Phnom Penh and Siem Reap. It's also great for spending time on the beach, as the water temperature is warm and inviting. The dry conditions also make it easier for outdoor activities such as hiking and cycling. The monsoon season starts in May and lasts until October, bringing heavy rain and high humidity, making it less desirable for travelers. So plan accordingly and book your trip between November and March, and experience the best of Cambodia's natural beauty and rich culture.
