South Korea in August

July to August sees the arrival of the summer monsoons when it becomes hot, humid and, often, wet across South Korea. By June highs reach around 26 °C (79 °F) with July experiencing the highest rainfall of the year, over 160 mm in Seoul . The summer is typhoon season, but fortunately most lose their strength by the time they make landfall on the peninsula. The island of Jeju, a short flight from Busan, is a much loved summer highlight where you can visit the surreal Manjanggul cave, or see hardy Haenyeo fisherwoman dive deep into the sea to catch shellfish, seaweed, and fish.
