The Far East is a great location for a cruise, or cruise and stay holiday. "Far East" mostly describes East and North East Asia, Southeast Asia, and the Russian Far East, with South Asia also included for economic and cultural reasons.

A tropical climate dominates throughout South East Asia. The entire region - excluding Burma - lies within the tropics. So whenever you decide to visit on your cruise, the temperatures will be either hot or unbelievably hot! Rainfall is notably high across the region but it varies significantly according to the monsoons. The southwest monsoon and the northeast monsoon are mostly responsible for this. However whether it is a dry or wet season, rain tends to fall frequently here.

In Oceanic Asia there is generally a two season climate, the wet season and the dry season. This is dictated by the northeast monsoon from October to April and the southwest monsoon from May to October. Like the other regions, temperatures are hot all year round here, averaging from the low 20s to the low 30s but there is less fluctuation here than in the mainland areas.
