The average annual rainfall measured is 2,000–2,500 mm, with 88% rain between July and December.
The dry season
The southwest win influences the dry season (from April to August). However, due to the regulation of the East Sea, the climate of Quang Binh is quite chilly at night.

Also, on rainy days, the water level in Son River rises, so you cannot visit Phong Nha Cave. You can still explore other caves such as Tien Son cave or Paradise cave.
