Best time to visit the Philippines

If you don’t know, Philippines has only 2 seasons- wet and dry season. You should be prepared with the weather in Manila because it is hot and humid during the months of March to May, and can extend up to June! The wet season starts from June to November.

But due to climate change (which affects Philippines the most), the rainy season can start as early as May. The best time to visit the Philippines is during the month of January, as the weather is expected to be the coldest of the year plus you won’t compete with the locals during December’s holiday rush (traffic and all). It depends on your preference after all.

It’s the perfect spot to relax after a long week. Seeing each other dive, witnessing their reactions, and even kissing underwater (ha!) as they see the beautiful creatures below are just really fun and romantic. Those underwater shots you’d take will really make good memories of you together. The picture above is from Sepoc Island!
