Brunei has a classic equatorial climate, with high temperatures and occasional downpours. It’s a steamy heat with temperatures typically ranging between the low 20s and low 30s Celsius night and day.

The good news is that coastal locations benefit from a sea breeze, which brings the temperatures down by 1 or 2 degrees; and on a humid day this can make all the difference from the stifling heat inland!

Monsoon rains peak towards the end of the year. But even during the rainy season, several days have little more than the occasional short tropical downpour.
