What you gain in March

  • 28mm of rain and 9.1 sunshine hours: the best weather month in Hoi An — An Bang Beach fully operational and uncrowded versus summer
  • 79% humidity is the year's lowest: afternoons feel genuinely fresh by Southeast Asian standards
  • Perfect tailoring conditions: book 3 days minimum for multiple fittings; dozens of ateliers operating at full capacity

What you sacrifice

  • Spring break and Easter traffic starting to arrive: March 15–31 sees a noticeable uptick in Western tourists
  • Hotel prices are 10–15% above January; advance booking needed for river-view guesthouses in the Old Town
  • Popular cooking classes and cycling tours fill up — book ahead more than you would in January
