Perlis Weather

Perlis, the smallest state in Malaysia, experiences a tropical monsoon climate with warm temperatures ranging from 23°C to 34°C (73°F to 93°F) throughout the year. The state has two distinct monsoon seasons: the Northeast Monsoon (November to March), which brings heavy rains, and the Southwest Monsoon (May to September), which is typically drier and hotter. The best time to visit Perlis is from December to April, when the weather is more pleasant, making it ideal for exploring attractions such as Padang Besar’s shopping district, Wang Kelian’s limestone hills, and the scenic Perlis State Park.
