Surviving Malaysia’s Bipolar Weather?

Living in Malaysia, I’m sure everyone is aware of how bipolar the weather can be every day. One minute it's blazing hot; the next, a torrential downpour interrupts your plans. This is especially true during the Northeast Monsoon, the main rainy season in our country usually in November-March. But does the rain mean you’re stuck at home all day? Absolutely not! Malaysia offers plenty of indoor activities to keep you entertained, no matter the weather. Here are some recommendations to make the most of your rainy days:

Rollerskating at Rollerwa
Rollerwa is a personal favourite for those looking to stay active indoors. Imagine gliding around a neon-lit rink with popular music pumping in the background—fun for all ages! Rollerwa is beginner-friendly, and with a little practice, you’ll be skating like a pro. It’s also a trendy spot for snapping photos to liven up your social media feed. Rollerwa has branches at One Utama, Lalaport, and IOI City Mall, so you’re never too far from the action. Check out its Instagram for more details and updates!

Climbing Adventures at Camp5
Looking to try something new? Climbing and bouldering might be your next big thing, and Camp5 offers safe, well-equipped climbing facilities suitable for all ages and skill levels to get started. It’s a great way to stay active, build strength, and have a ton of fun indoors. Check out the website to learn more and book a session. Climb on!

Indoor Fun Park: Game-On
Ever wanted an all-in-one entertainment hub? Game-On has you covered! This indoor theme park is packed with exciting activities: Bounce on trampolines, shoot hoops, ride slides, or belt out your favourite tunes in the karaoke room.

Perfect for families, groups of friends, or even solo adventurers, Game-On guarantees fun no matter the weather. With six branches nationwide, you’re sure to find one near you. Visit the website for locations and more information.

Speed Thrills with Go-Karting
For adrenaline junkies, indoor go-karting is a must-try! Rain or shine, you can zoom around a track, testing your driving skills and battling it out with friends for the fastest lap. Many venues offer state-of-the-art electric karts and safe tracks suitable for all ages. Our faves are these two indoor electric karting centres, Evolt Karting and Traxion Karting, to start your exhilarating adventure!

Bonus! More indoor activities beyond the usual
If none of these pique your interest, consider exploring an escape room, trying a pottery or art class, or even relaxing with a good book at a cozy café. Rainy days can be the perfect excuse to discover hidden gems and new hobbies.

With so many exciting indoor options available, you can turn a rainy day into an adventure. So, grab your friends or family, head out, and make the most of the monsoon season!
