Cambodia features a predominantly tropical climate characterized by high temperatures year-round, high humidity, and distinct wet and dry seasons, making it appealing for expats seeking warm weather but challenging due to heat and monsoon rains. The country spans about 181,000 km² with limited climate diversity, primarily falling under Tropical savanna (Aw) and Tropical monsoon (Am) classifications per Köppen-Geiger, with coastal southwest areas wetter. Average annual temperatures hover around 27-28°C, with minimal seasonal variation: 'summer' (March-May) peaks at 30-35°C and 'winter' (November-February) cools slightly to 25-30°C. Rainfall varies from 1200-2000mm annually, concentrated May-October, while sunshine exceeds 2500 hours yearly. Humidity remains consistently high at 75-85%, ideal for lush landscapes but requiring adaptation for comfortable living.
