How to do and what to expect if travel to Vietnam in June

The weather in June is hot. For those who not used to the tropical heat, it may make you sometimes feel a bit tired. Anyway, despite the concern about the weather, June offers some good reasons to travel to Vietnam.

All places throughout the country are expected to be sunny and warm hence offering good view and bright photos. A discovery to Sa Pa, Ha Giang or similar promises a stunning excellent chance for august natural scenery.

With a long coastline and many stunning beaches, it is a good time to enjoy the sun & sea and to get suntan here.  Beaches of Ha Long, Cat Ba in the North, Hoi An, Da Nang and Nha Trang in the Centre, Mui Ne and Phu Quoc in the South all are basking in the sunlight and offering excellent swimming condition.

This time is the low season for foreign tourists so you are most likely to have better prices for some services such as restaurant, bar and accommodation in most cities (of course where are out of the crowd of the local tourists).

For things to do this time, long biking or outdoor adventures (except in water and the sea) are not recommended but walking and easy style travel is more than appropriate. Just drink enough water and dress light, loose-fitting.

June is the holiday season for locals, especially at the weekends so, if you do not want to be in the crowd you should avoid taking popular places and beaches during that time.
