TL;DR
In Da Nang, the sea is often rough from around October to March, with the most difficult period usually from November to January, when typhoons and 2–5 days of heavy rain can happen. In January and February, daytime temperatures can be around 20°C, and the sea may be too rough or cool for swimming; conditions usually start improving by February.
If it’s cloudy in Da Nang, the waves are high, and the water feels cool, that is not necessarily caused only by a typhoon. These conditions are fairly typical in the local winter season, and the sea is often unsuitable for swimming even without severe weather.
Winter in Da Nang can be unpredictable, so it’s wise to plan for typhoons, 2–5 consecutive days of heavy rain, and sea conditions that make swimming impossible. This is most commonly expected from around November, while things usually get easier by February.
According to long-term visitors, the sea in Da Nang is often rough from October through March. In January and February, daytime temperatures can be around 20°C, so some people wear a tracksuit and sneakers during the day rather than beachwear.
