Penang's tropical climate keeps days warm and humid through the year, and the west-coast islands see their driest stretch from about December to April. Malaysian island food blends Malay, Chinese and Indian influences, built around fresh seafood and rice, so a meal after a garden walk fits the local pattern. Flights, ferries and road bridges connect Malaysia's islands to the mainland, and Malay and English are the main languages spoken.
