When to Visit
Visitors can enjoy Penang year-round, with its constant tropical climate, but certain times may prove more pleasant. The dry season, typically from December to March, sees sunnier days and cooler temperatures, making it an ideal period for beach-goers and explorers.
Alternatively, the months of April to November, though marked by occasional rain, present a lush, vibrant Penang that can be equally captivating. As always, pack a raincoat, an adventurous spirit, and prepare to indulge in all that Penang has to offer.
