Where should you go in Malaysia in august when it comes to the weather?

Remember:
The climate in Malaysia in august ranges from good to bad depending on the region and city.

Heat and humidity characterize the climate throughout August in Malaysia. The whole territory has a high degree of humidity, whether on the Malaysia peninsula or in eastern Malaysia. However, due to the geographical location of each locality, one may (or may not) have a few moments of cloud thinnings.

August on the Western Coasts in Peninsular of Malaysia

The days begin with a barely comfortable heat, as the temperatures vary between 28° C and 29° C as of daybreak. This heat continues to increase over the hours. Most of the islands (Pangkor Island, Penang Island, Langkawi Island) off the west coast of Malaysia have the same climatic characteristics. Only the favorable moments for showers differ from one island to another.

August on the North East Peninsular of Malaysia

Despite the deplorable weather conditions in Kota Bharu, the weather throughout August in Malaysia allows one to enjoy the pleasant moments, with a supportable heat and hours of sunshine.

August on the Southwest Peninsular of Malaysia

The mornings in Kuala Lumpur are generally pleasant, as the heat is comfortable and the showers are relatively rare. However by early in the afternoon, the showers intensify at the same time as the heat - favoring a humid and uncomfortable atmosphere.

August in Eastern Malaysia

The climatic conditions of Sandakan are barely acceptable during the month of August. The heat is scorching and the intensity of the showers makes outdoor activities almost impossible.
