Visiting Malaysia in April

Visitor numbers continue to rise on the east coast, and with Penang and Langkawi still bathing in sunshine. April is a popular time to travel to Malaysia. Kuala Lumpur, the Cameron Highlands and Pangkor Islands are subject to the odd shower at this time of year, but not enough to impact on your trip.

Visiting Malaysia in May

Malaysia's east coast is the perfect place to be as the snorkelling and diving season begins. Calm seas and white sands are the perfect match for the beautiful islands. The winds pick up on the west coast and the continuous sunshine is no longer guaranteed. You can also expect some late afternoon thunderstorms.

Events & Festivals

• Hari Raya Aidilfitri (May): Marking the end of Ramadan with the breaking of the fast, this is one of the most important celebrations on the Islamic calendar. Families gather together for a traditional feast and travel may be busy.

Visiting Malaysia in June

Peak diving season begins on Tioman, with Redang and the Perhentians also experiencing hot, dry weather. The rains come to the west coast but are usually short sharp showers and should not impact on your overall enjoyment. This is a good time to combine Kuala Lumpur with Kuala Terengganu and the Perhentians.

Visiting Malaysia in July

This is peak season on the east coast, and visitor numbers will be high due to it coinciding with the European school holidays. The east coast receives some of its best weather, while on the west coast the seas are choppy, winds are up, and you should expect the odd downpour.

Visiting Malaysia in August

Peak season continues on the east coast and it's a good idea to book far in advance in order to secure preferred accommodation options. With hot, humid conditions and the chance of rain, Malaysia's west coast will now start to receive heavy downpours, though many people still travel during this period.

Events & Festivals

• National Day/Hari Merdeka (31st August): A day commemorating the independence of the Federation of Malaya from British colonial rule in 1957.

Visiting Malaysia in September

At the start of the month the east coast should still be bathing in sunshine; however, as the month goes on temperatures begin to drop and rougher seas are visible around the islands. Over on the other side of the country, the rains begin to die down and sunny days become more frequent. With visitor numbers dropping, you could grab a shoulder season bargain.

Events & Festivals

• Awal Muharram (date varies, but usually between September and November): The beginning of the Islamic New Year is marked by Muslims through the attendance of religious activities, praying and singing.

Visiting Malaysia in October

The rains on the west coast have one last downpour before months of dry weather. There should be guaranteed sunshine on Penang and Langkawi toward the end of the month. The east coast, on the other hand, braces itself for high winds and heavy rains. This can be a good time to visit as visitor numbers will be lower.
