During this time, you can expect sunny days and lower humidity levels, making it perfect for beach activities and exploring the area. The wet season, from November to March, brings heavy rainfall and higher humidity, but also lower prices and fewer crowds.

Getting around

Taxis are also available, but make sure to use reputable companies or negotiate the fare before getting in. Walking or cycling is a great way to explore the local shops and cafes along the main streets.

Traveller tips

Make sure to pack sunscreen and insect repellent, as the sun can be strong and mosquitoes are prevalent in the area. Be respectful of the local culture and dress modestly when visiting temples or religious sites. Bargaining is common in markets and small shops, so don't be afraid to negotiate prices. Stay hydrated and drink bottled water to avoid getting sick from tap water. Be cautious of your belongings in crowded areas to prevent theft.
