Climate Chart of Da Lat, Viet Nam
Monthly data: Temperature °C, Rain (mm), Sunshine (h) · 2013–2023
For Da Lat, Viet Nam, the climate data cover 2013–2023. Monthly mean temperatures stay within a fairly narrow range across the recorded months, while mean daily rainfall and sunshine show clearer monthly contrasts. These figures offer a broad guide to the annual pattern, rather than a forecast for any particular visit: monthly means smooth over day-to-day conditions, and rainfall and sunshine averages do not indicate how conditions will unfold on individual days.
Climate overview
Temperature
January has the lowest monthly mean temperature, at 17.0 °C, while the highest monthly mean is recorded in May at 20.0 °C. These are averages for each month, not daytime highs or a description of every day, so visitors should treat them as a guide to the broad temperature pattern rather than a guarantee of specific conditions. Across the calendar-month means, the unweighted mean is 18.7 °C; it summarizes the monthly averages and is not a day-weighted annual average.
Rain
Mean daily rainfall reaches its highest monthly value in September, at 9.39 mm/day, and its lowest in February, at 0.80 mm/day. The figures are daily averages for those months, not monthly rainfall totals, and the lower mean does not guarantee rain-free days or reveal how often rain falls. The unweighted mean of the monthly mean daily rainfall values is 5.05 mm/day. This provides a broad summary, but cannot describe the timing or length of rainy spells.
Sunshine
Mean daily sunshine is highest in March, at 11.13 hours/day, and lowest in September, at 8.40 hours/day. These are average sunshine durations, not measures of day length, and conditions on a particular day may differ from the monthly mean. The unweighted mean across the monthly sunshine averages is 9.59 hours/day per day, a useful overview for outdoor planning but not a promise of sunshine on any individual day.
Best Travel Time Guide for Da Lat, Viet Nam: Ideal Seasons and Weather Insights
For visitors prioritising cooler monthly mean temperatures, January is the relevant point of reference, with a mean of 17.0 °C; this does not specify daytime highs or the conditions on a particular travel date. Those prioritising lower average rainfall could consider February, when mean daily rainfall is 0.80 mm/day, while preparing for rain is especially relevant in September, with a mean daily value of 9.39 mm/day. These averages do not quantify rain frequency or guarantee dry or wet days, so flexible plans and rain protection remain sensible.
For daylight outdoor planning, March has the highest mean daily sunshine duration at 11.13 hours/day, while September has the lowest at 8.40 hours/day. Sunshine duration is not day length, and these monthly averages cannot promise the conditions on an excursion; use them as one planning consideration rather than a universal best-time ranking.
