- When is summer?
Summer in Tokyo and other parts of Japan is usually from June to August.
- What to expect in summer:
Asia is rarely a pleasant place to travel in the summer, and Tokyo is no exception. Summer days in Tokyo are hot and sticky, with frequent downpours sullening the mood between mid-June and mid-July. Late August and early September are equally nasty as typhoon season hits Japan. Oddly enough, summer is also one of the busiest times of the year for tourists in Tokyo. Book your accommodations well ahead if you’re planning to travel at this time.
- What to wear in summer:
With the heat and humidity, you’ll be most comfortable in light summer attire, including lightweight, quick-drying pants and shirts. Lightweight hiking shoes, breathable walking shoes, or travel sandals will keep your feet comfortable in the dead heat of summer. Be sure to carry a travel umbrella and ultra-lightweight rain jacket with you at all times but above all, grab a Japan eSim before you embark on this adventure. Report this page
