Traveller notes on Kep in July
Notes from nearby Phu Quoc (48 km away)
Kep doesn't have its own notes for July yet — these are about Phu Quoc, close enough to share the season.
Phu Quoc's forum calls July rainy season but not the peak of it, with rain most days though rarely an all-day washout, and rougher seas particularly on the island's west side. Regulars note conditions vary a lot by luck and by which coast you're on, with the calmer southeast side a better bet, and several suggest waiting for October or November if reliable beach weather matters more than the trip dates.
