Best time to visit Malaysia
Malaysia is a year round destination.
On the West coast of Peninsular Malaysia, rain falls fairly evenly throughout the year with the most rain during the months from October to March.
The east coast of Peninsular Malaysia receives heavy rain from November to mid-February. During these months many resorts are closed and boat services dwindle or stop altogether.
The climate in East Malaysia is hot and humid. The heaviest rainfall generally occurs between November and April. At higher elevations the temperature is cool and freezing at night. Mt Kinabalu has its own climate and, above 3500m, temperatures can drop to freezing.
