Locally known as "summer" in the Philippines, according to meteorologists, March to May are actually the dry season. The best time to travel between islands is summer. The Philippines' climate is tropical, with only two significant seasons—the dry and wet seasons—in contrast to countries with temperate climates that have four seasons—spring, summer, fall, and winter.
The dry season can be divided into two distinct periods: the cool, dry season (late November to early February), which is brought on by the northeast monsoon, and the cold winds (brought on by the melting ice from the north). Also known as "summer time" by the locals is the hot, dry season that lasts from March to May. The best time to visit the Philippines is during this season because so many visitors prefer to visit the islands' beaches. Make sure to bring lots of sunscreens and light clothing.
