Singapore – Vietnam – Hong Kong
Published 16 years ago, updated 5 years ago
Appreciate any advice and routing information from Singapore to Vietnam and subsequently Hong Kong from late April. Any views on how the 2006/7 El Nino event will influence wind and currents?
The route is quite simple, but you must not leave it too late, i.e. avoid sailing once the NE monsoon is established, so you may be better off to start earlier – Feb or March is better.
We do have a lot of news on El Nino on noonsite and it is regularly upgraded. See:
El Niño conditions are likely to continue through March-May 2007
There is a lot more in NEWS – look it up.
