Climate in Dong Thap

Dong Thap lies on the upper Tien River and encompasses the vast Plain of Reeds, with a hot, humid subequatorial tropical monsoon climate split into two distinct seasons. The dry season from December to April is sunny with parched fields and an April heat peak that can reach 35-36°C, while the rainy season from May to November brings showers on the southwest monsoon. Its signature feature is the floating-water season around September to November, when upstream Mekong floods inundate the fields and bring abundant fisheries. This page offers an hourly and 14-day forecast plus detailed metrics including humidity, wind, UV index and air quality (AQI).

Frequently asked questions

When is the floating-water season in Dong Thap?

The floating-water (flood) season typically runs from September to November, when floods from the upper Mekong spill into the Plain of Reeds, raising water across fields and canals.

Which month is hottest in Dong Thap?

March and April are the hottest, with daytime highs reaching 35-36°C, and the Plain of Reeds becomes markedly dry.

When is the best time to see lotuses and the flood season?

The flood season from September to November is great for the waterland scenery, while lotuses bloom most in summer, roughly May to August.

Does Dong Thap have saltwater intrusion?

Very little. Being upstream on the Tien River, Dong Thap is far less affected than coastal provinces; its main concerns are late dry-season drought and flooding in the high-water season.
