Best time to visit: The drier, slightly cooler season from May to October is generally the most comfortable time to visit, with lower humidity and less rainfall than the wetter, cyclone‑prone months from November to April.. Longer daylight hours during this period help travelers recover from jetlag more quickly, as natural light is the strongest zeitgeber (time cue) for resetting your circadian rhythm.

The destination's consistent tropical climate means minimal seasonal variations in daylight, with only slight differences between dry and wet seasons affecting traveler adaptation.
