Tropical weather

The best time to visit Bangladesh is when it's lovely and clear, thanks to its tropical-subtropical climate. By traveling between late November and early March, when the weather is comfortably mild and the thunderstorms are replaced by sunshine, you can avoid the worst of monsoon season. The best months to travel to Dhaka are February through May, when the weather is mild and dry enough to explore the city. The Bengali New Year's Poila Baishakh festival, which is held in April, infuses the city with joy as parades go through the streets.

From November to March, when it's warm and sunny, is the dry season. In November, while cyclones are still brushing the coast, there are lingering showers in the southeast. One of the best months to travel to Bangladesh is December, which features bright, sunny days and chilly evenings. At this time of year, Dhaka has a nice temperature of 25°C. Between the months of March and May, when temperatures can exceed 40 °C, Bangladesh swelters under a hot spring. The oppressive humidity causes beautiful thunderstorms to occur. It is interrupted by a protracted monsoon season that begins at the end of May and lasts until October.
