Summer Weather in Macau

Macau weather in summer (June - August) can seem like swimming through soup. The sun beats down, the air is laced with humidity and shirts become tissues to stop sweat. Locals walking around in the heat during lunchtimes look like they have just completed a marathon. Added to this misery is the constant threat of summer showers, thunderstorms and Hong Kong typhoons. Summer weather in Macau is best avoided, unless absolutely necessary.

Clothes

T-Shirts and shorts, although those who easily burn in the sun may want to consider long sleeves, and if not very high factor sun cream. Raincoats are useless, as the sun will melt you and it like a candle, pick up an umbrella in town.

Facts and Figures

The temperature averages at 28 for much of the summer and even at night doesn't drop significantly. Rainfall can be extremely erratic, but on average you can expect 80-100mm
