The best time to go to Gua Gomantong is during the dry season, which typically runs from March to October.During these months, you'll experience less rainfall and generally clearer skies, making the journey to the caves and exploration within them much more pleasant. The paths leading to and inside the caves can become slippery and muddy during heavy rains, so a drier period ensures a more comfortable and convenient visit. This period also coincides with the peak swiftlet nesting season, offering a higher chance to witness the harvesting of birds' nests.For those keen on wildlife spotting, particularly the "Gomantong shuffle" at dusk when millions of bats emerge and swiftlets return, the dry season provides optimal viewing conditions.
