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 Tekek, the island's main village: ten years of ERA5 and ERA5-Land reanalysis, through Open-Meteo's open data.

What to pack

  • Summer clothes by day, highs around 27°C.

  • Sun protection: about 11 hours of sunshine a day.
  • Humidity averages 83%; breathable fabrics dry faster.

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

Before you go

Type G plugs at 240 V. Drives on the left. The currency is the Malaysian ringgit. UK Foreign Office: avoid all but essential travel to parts. Everything for Malaysia: cost of living, languages, emergency numbers and health.

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