The short answer
When to go to Da Nang
February to May is the best window for Da Nang, with dry, warm and clear days and calmer seas, ideal for the beach, the Marble Mountains and Ba Na Hills. June to August is hot, with highs in the mid-30s C, so plan outings early and late. September to December is the typhoon and wet season, and October averages over 600 mm of rain, so expect closures, flooding and rough seas. Older travellers will find February to April the most comfortable.
