Vietnam is kind of a transitionary area climate-wise from the north to the south.

As the coast line is shielded by the Truong Son
mountain range the rains that come with the southwest monsoon don't make it to the coast, so between April and September, while the coastal area does see some rain, it does see less than other parts of the country.

This advantage is reversed though come the
northeast monsoon when, between September and December, the northern section of Central Vietnam (Hoi An and Da Nang through to Hue and Dong Ha) receive considerable rain.

The southern
coastal strip from around Nha Trang to Mui Ne is less affected by the rain and sees a longer dry and sunny season.

Without the protection of the Truong Son mountain
range, southern Vietnam, especially the Mekong Delta, gets plenty of rain and hot, humid weather during the southwest monsoon from April to September, with June and July being especially wet.
