Ten-year averages for this calendar month. A rainy day is one with at least 1 mm of rain, as a weather station counts it. The model these figures come from drizzles more than a rain gauge, the more so the warmer the month, so its days count from 2 mm, rising to 5 mm in the hottest.

Weather read at Coron town, Busuanga, 18 km from the airport (USU): ten years of ERA5 and ERA5-Land reanalysis, through Open-Meteo's open data.

What to pack

  • Light, loose clothes: daily highs average 32°C.
  • A packable rain jacket for the 7 or so rainy days.
  • Sun protection: about 11 hours of sunshine a day.
  • Humidity averages 77%; breathable fabrics dry faster.

Each line is a threshold over the ten-year figures above, not advice from anywhere else.

Before you go

Type A and B and C plugs at 220 V. Drives on the right. The currency is the Philippine peso. UK Foreign Office: avoid all travel to parts. Everything for Philippines: cost of living, languages, emergency numbers and health.

On arrival in Coron: the apps, paying, getting around, tipping and the emergency numbers.
