Be preparedHoi An flooding (Oct–Nov)
Be prepared · Da Nang & Hoi An
Hoi An's Old Town floods most autumns when the Thu Bồn river rises; low-lying streets and ground-floor homes can be cut off for days, and some homestays sit right on the water.
What to do
Avoid riverside ground-floor lodging in Oct–Nov, keep valuables up high, and never wade or ride through moving floodwater.
