Cavite's climate follows Metro Manila's pattern — a dry season from roughly November to April and a wet season from May to October, with typhoon season peaking from July to September. The best time to visit for outdoor activities and heritage walking is December to March, when humidity drops and rainfall is minimal.
The highlands around Tagaytay and Alfonso are noticeably cooler than the lowlands year-round, making them particularly attractive during the humid months. Even in April, the ridge sits in mist or cloud on many mornings.
Independence Day on 12 June brings particular significance to Cavite, especially at the Aguinaldo Shrine in Kawit, where the original proclamation took place. Ceremonies and events there are worth attending for those in the area around that date.
