The verdict for June
Hot, wet and tropical
+Strong event calendar
–Very wet and humid
June is hot, humid and extremely wet, with rainfall among the highest of the year. The Dragon Boat Festival brings major sporting and cultural activity despite the difficult outdoor weather.
Quiet and humid
+Fewer visitors and strong hotel value.
–Hot, humid and increasingly rainy.
