Yangshuo Weather in June
Season: Summer
June belongs to the rainy season of Yangshuo, when the rainfall is high at around 293 mm and the rainy days are 18 on average. According to the historical climate data of the past few years, showers play the dominant role this month, which come suddenly, but also stop quickly. However, generally speaking, June will also experience several heavy or torrential rains, which will not only make outdoor activities inconvenient and even unsafe, but also cause the waters of the Li River and the Yulong River to be muddy and less attractive.
With an average humidity of 80%, the weather of Yangshuo in June is pretty wet. During your stay, you will find your clothes, hotel sheets, etc., damp.
Average Temperature: 23-30°C (73-86°F)
On most days in June, the maximum temperature is around 30 degrees Celsius (86 degrees Fahrenheit), and sometimes, it reaches nearly 35°C (95°F). The relatively high temperature, combined with the high humidity mentioned above, makes the weather of Yangshuo during the daytime sticky and uncomfortable, especially when the value is around 35°C (95°F).
The minimum temperature is around 25°C (77°F) most of the time, so the nighttime is cozy and pleasant. Quite occasionally, it may drop to around 20°C (68°F).
June marks the month with the longest daylight hours throughout the year, which is over 13.5 per day. Generally speaking, the sun rises at 05:48-05:52 and sets at 19:23-19:31. But the sunshine hours are about 5 per day on average because of many rainy and cloudy days.
But when the sun shines, the sunlight is intense, with the UV index reaching a maximum of 11+. So, it is quite important to take sun protection measures on sunny days to avoid sunburn.
June is actually not a recommended month to visit Yangshuo due to the occasional heavy rains and stuffy weather, though it brings abundant waters and lush vegetation. However, if you only have time during this period, you are recommended to make thorough preparations:
Clothes: To cope with the high temperature, you need to bring lightweight summer clothes like T-shirts, tank tops, thin long pants, shorts, and dresses. Since the air is humid, you are recommended to bring breathable and quick-dry ones. On sunny days, sun-protection jackets or shirts are necessary to protect you from the strong UV rays, which can also help you keep warm at nighttime when needed.
Shoes: Water shoes, which are non-slip and made of quick-drying materials, are the best choices for your Yangshuo trip in June. As an alternative, you can also bring waterproof, non-slip, and breathable sneakers.
Others:
1. As mentioned above, the rain may come quite suddenly in June, so you are highly recommended to pack a compact umbrella in your backpack. If you plan to rent an electric bicycle to explore Yangshuo, a raincoat, which is more convenient, is also needed to prepare.
2. Whether it’s raining or you are experiencing bamboo rafting, you will likely need a waterproof phone bag.
3. Be sure to bring high-SPF sunscreen. Moreover, when you are going to be exposed to the sun for long periods, reapply it frequently. Sunhats and sunglasses are also recommended to bring.
4. Don’t forget to pack mosquito repellent.
1. Generally speaking, June is the slack season, and Yangshuo won’t be crowded, allowing you to enjoy a quiet trip. However, the three-day Dragon Boat Festival holiday, typically falling in May or June, is an exception. During this period, Yangshuo usually sees more visitors, especially if the weather is good. So, you are recommended to book hotels and tickets in advance. In 2026, the Dragon Boat Festival holiday falls from June 19th to 21st. It’s also worth mentioning that during this period, the Yulong River Golden Dragon Parade will be held.
2. Bamboo rafting may be closed during and after heavy rain, when water levels are high, so it’s advisable to arrange alternative plans in advance, such as visiting Assembling Dragon Cave or Lotus Cave.
3. This month, the climate of Yangshuo is extremely humid, so it’s best to choose a hotel with dehumidifiers when making your reservation.
4. If you plan to hike in Yangshuo, be aware that some trails may become flooded after heavy rain. Be sure to monitor the latest information at all times. Additionally, try to schedule your hikes in the early morning when it’s cooler and more comfortable.
