Best time to visit Philippines

8 destinations

Philippines does not have a single best season. Its 8 destinations peak across 3 different months, which means an itinerary that moves around the country will be in the right season for some of it and the wrong one for the rest — worth building the route around.

Averaged across every destination listed, Philippines is at its best in February, scoring 61 out of 100, with March close behind at 57. May is the weakest month nationally at 43. The window is narrow: only 3 months come within eight points of the best, so an itinerary covering several of these places should be built around that rather than around any one city's own peak.

Philippines is climatically consistent — only 3 °C separates its warmest destination from its coolest across the year. Rainfall is broadly similar throughout, from 221 wet days a year in Angeles City to 280 in Quezon City.
