Caloocan in March sees daytime temperatures around 31°C (88°F), dropping to about 23°C (73°F) at night. The month is wet, with about 123 mm (4.8 in) of rain spread over 15 days, one of the driest months of the year. Humidity averages 81%, so it feels sticky and hotter than the thermometer suggests.

Is March a good time to visit Caloocan?
March is not the best time to visit Caloocan (3.9/10) mainly because of the rain. The weather is much better in January and February.
Visiting Caloocan in March
March weather in Caloocan
March feels hot and sticky here. Highs reach 31°C and humidity sits around 81%, so a walk around Monumento can wear you out by midday. Rain is the bigger issue, though. You'll see about 15 rainy days and 123 mm of rain, which is why March rates Poor at 3.9/10. You still get decent sunshine between showers, but don't plan around a full dry day.
Those conditions are why January and February are the better months to visit. Short visits to the Bonifacio Monument or a relaxed meal in a neighbourhood eatery beat a long afternoon walk in March. If the heat or rain starts to get to you, a mall near Monumento makes a good indoor backup.
Events and crowds
I can't name a major March event that's a regular Caloocan fixture. Ramadan or Holy Week may fall in March depending on the year, and either can affect opening hours and travel across Metro Manila. If you hate crowds, don't assume the streets will be quiet around national holidays.
It also helps to compare March with its neighbours. February is a little cooler, with highs of 29°C, and April is hotter, at 33°C. Prices vary by hotel and holiday dates, so don't expect every stay to cost less just because it's March.
Getting around Monumento
If you're travelling with kids, keep outdoor sightseeing around Monumento short, then take a cool break nearby.
A handy local tip: use LRT-1's Monumento station for the Bonifacio Monument, rather than arranging a car just for that stop. The monument sits beside a busy transport hub, so traffic and noise are part of the visit. Leave room for rain on the way back, since March showers are frequent enough to disrupt a walk. For a longer outing, split outdoor stops between morning and late afternoon, and save the hottest part of the day for an indoor meal.
