If we compare a city to a person, then its “clothing” is the most visible outward appearance. Xiamen, located on the southeastern coast of China and often referred to as “Egret Island,” is not only renowned for its coastal scenery and unique Minnan culture, but also cherished as a holiday destination thanks to its mild and pleasant climate. Here, the four seasons are distinct, yet without the harsh winters of the north or the sweltering heat of South Asia. The overall weather is moderate and humid. For international travelers, understanding Xiamen’s seasons and climate not only helps in choosing the right clothing, but also ensures a comfortable travel experience. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the city’s climate and wardrobe tips across the four seasons: spring, summer, autumn, and winter.
