Погода: Каеп, ноябрь

Regulars are specific this month splits into two real halves - early November still emerging from the rainy season with real showers and cloudy stretches possible, while conditions reliably improve from around mid-month onward into the warm, sunny weather the island is known for. Our row backs that hot, genuinely wet read, 31.5C reading as a scorching 36C, over 24.6C nights feeling 28C, with a substantial 138.8mm of rain across 18.2 days and humidity at 77 percent. Regulars are consistent this still counts as peak hotel season and one of the most popular windows to visit overall, any rain typically arriving in the evening rather than disrupting a full day. The sea sits at a bath-warm 30.1C. The record: 9.2 hours of sun, a 23.2 kph wind and AQI 45.

Cambodia forum threads are consistent that January sits squarely in the dry season here - lower temperatures, much lower humidity than the wetter months, and genuinely pleasant conditions extending from the November/December stretch through January. One visitor specifically mentioned swimming at Angkoul Beach in January with fine water quality despite the beach itself not being pristine. Kep's famous crab market was the other recurring highlight, with regulars recommending buying fresh crab straight from vendors who'll cook it to order with Kampot pepper. One seasonal note worth knowing: the region's solar salt fields, a nearby attraction, only work and look their best in dry season - during the wet months they're just flooded fields.

Forum posters describe February as a good time to visit Cambodia generally - somewhat cooler than the peak heat ahead but already warming up, and noticeably drier, with leaves dropping from trees and rice fields mostly harvested and dry. Posters do flag genuine dust as a byproduct of this dry stretch. Even within the broader November-February dry season, posters describe a common daily pattern of a sunny, pleasant morning giving way to more cloud by late afternoon, with a real chance of a passing shower or brief thunderstorm by evening - Cambodia's tropical climate means even the dry season isn't fully rain-free. Posters generally pair a Kep visit with nearby Kampot, treating the two coastal towns as a natural combination.
