Fruit season and weather
The Mekong Delta is hot and humid year-round, with heavy rain from May to November, though it usually comes in short afternoon showers. The peak fruit season is around May–August. When boating on the river, wear a hat and apply sunscreen, as the sun is much harsher on the water than on land.
