July is seen as a great time to travel because the scorching heat starts to ease, but the rainy season hasn’t fully arrived yet. This weather is perfect for embarking on exciting and fun-filled trips. However, not all destinations are ideal. Let’s explore which places you should and shouldn’t visit in July, according to Mytour.
Typically, compared to June, the weather in July is slightly milder. The temperatures are no longer as oppressive and uncomfortable. However, a few storms might hit the northern coastal areas. So, while July offers good weather for travel, not every place is perfect for a visit. You’ll need to understand the specific weather conditions at your intended destination and, of course, keep an eye on weather updates for the latest news.
Top travel destinations to consider in July
Da Nang Beach City
If you're passionate about turquoise seas, white sands, and golden sunshine, Da Nang should definitely be on your list. Known as the 'most livable city in Vietnam,' its stunning beaches will captivate you, making your summer unforgettable.

In July, this mountain town welcomes you with light, romantic rain showers. The weather in Da Lat during this time is around 18-20°C, which is perfect for relaxation as the fresh, cool air of Da Lat is well-known for being refreshing and comfortable.

Tam Dao
If you find yourself pressed for time and unable to plan for a longer trip to Central or Southern Vietnam, why not consider Tam Dao? Located just about 70 km from Hanoi's center, it’s easily accessible by various means of transport such as buses, cars, or even a motorbike adventure.
Due to its proximity and the refreshing, pleasant climate, Tam Dao is always a top choice for visitors looking for a weekend retreat. However, because of its popularity, it tends to get crowded on weekends, so if you plan to visit Tam Dao, it’s a good idea to book your accommodation in advance.
Where YOU SHOULD NOT go in July?
Because of the weather characteristics in July, there are certain destinations you might want to reconsider before planning your trip. These include:
- Islands in Quang Ninh such as Quan Lan, Co To, Ngoc Vung, Minh Chau; Cat Ba Island (Hai Phong)...: These are all well-known islands in the North. However, due to the possibility of early season storms in July impacting the northern seas, it is advisable to reconsider your travel plans to these areas during this time.
- Tourist spots in the Northern mountain region like Son La, Moc Chau, Mai Chau…: Not only coastal areas, but in July, the weather with rainstorms may lead to flash floods and landslides in the northern mountainous regions, especially on roads leading to Mai Chau and Moc Chau. Therefore, if you plan to visit these areas, it is recommended to avoid the storm season for your safety.

The northern beaches are beautiful, but if you plan to visit in July, be sure to pay close attention to the weather conditions.
This provides extremely helpful information to assist you in choosing where to visit and where to avoid this July. We hope that with Mytour's article, you will be able to select the best destination for your summer trip.
