Durian Season in Penang
The main durian season in Penang typically runs from May to August, with peak harvest usually occurring in June and July. Some farms also have a smaller second season from December to February.
For the best durian experience, it's recommended to visit during the peak season when the widest variety of durians are available and at their best quality. However, prices are also typically higher during this period due to high demand.
Many farms offer pre-booking services, especially for premium varieties like Musang King and Black Thorn. Consider calling ahead to reserve your durians, particularly if you're visiting during peak season.
