When is the best time to fly to Dhaka?

High Season

Dhaka's high season, from October to March, brings cooler, drier weather. Temperatures typically range from 15°C to 25°C, offering a comfortable atmosphere for exploring. The air feels crisper, and the city becomes less humid, making outdoor activities more pleasant. Upon arrival, you'll notice a bustling energy and clear skies, ideal for navigating the city.

This season is marked by numerous festivals and events. Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha, depending on the lunar calendar, often fall within this period, transforming the city with celebrations and family gatherings. Outdoor markets thrive, and local parks are busy with people enjoying the mild climate. The absence of monsoon rains means daily life flows smoothly, with fewer disruptions to travel and daily routines.

Low Season

The low season in Dhaka, from April to September, is characterised by intense heat and the monsoon rains. Temperatures frequently exceed 30°C, combined with very high humidity, making the city feel hot and sticky. From May to September, heavy rainfall is common, often leading to waterlogged streets. Arriving during this period, you will experience a noticeably slower pace and a city adapting to the wet conditions.

Daily life adjusts significantly during the monsoon. While the rain provides some relief from the heat, it can also disrupt travel and outdoor plans. Indoor activities become more prevalent, and locals often seek refuge from the downpours. The Eid festivals might also occur in this period, bringing their own unique atmosphere despite the challenging weather. The city takes on a distinct, rain-washed identity, reflecting its resilience to the elements.
