Frequently asked questions
The good time for joining coconut boat tour depends on the weather that day and what is the season on that day. In our experience you should join at:
- Hot season(March to September): For the morning time you should join arround 7:30-9:30am, for the afternoon time you should join arroud 3-5PM due to that season the weather in Vietnam is so hot. Join at early morning and late afternoon time to avoiding the hot weather
- Raining season(October to February): 7:30am-4:30PM, at that season almost the time is good for joining, but one note that you should go early since this season the weather goes to dark very soon.
