In April, Cambodia experiences sweltering heat with an average high temperature reaching 36°C (97°F), emphasizing the importance of sun protection and hydration during the day. At night, temperatures drop to a more comfortable 25°C (77°F) on average, though lightweight clothing is still advisable. 

With an average precipitation of 82 mm and approximately nine rainy days, mostly in the form of showers or thunderstorms, it is prudent to pack rain gear for your trip. Additionally, April boasts approximately 11 hours of sunshine daily. Despite the anticipated heat and potential thunderstorms, with adequate preparation and thoughtful planning, you can still enjoy a delightful and memorable travel experience in Cambodia.

Tip: In April, Cambodia has fewer tourists than in the peak season from November to February. This makes popular attractions less crowded. It’s also cost-effective to make the trip in April because accommodations and services are cheaper.
     Clothes: During the day, opt for lightweight and breathable clothing such as short-sleeved T-shirts, tank tops, or long-sleeved shirts in light colors to help you stay cool and comfortable. Shorts, short skirts, or thin long dresses are all excellent choices for the hot weather. 
  Shoes: Wear sneakers, sandals, or flip-flops that are comfortable enough for long walking in attractions.
  Other Necessities: Although April is typically the dry season, occasional showers still occur, so it is wise to carry a raincoat and umbrella just in case. Additionally, when engaging in outdoor activities, remember to wear long-sleeved clothing and apply mosquito repellent to protect yourself from insect bites.
