Cool Season - November to February

This is generally considered the best time to visit Thailand. The weather is cooler and more comfortable, making it ideal for outdoor activities and sightseeing. The northern regions, like Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai, experience pleasant temperatures, while the southern islands and beaches are dry and sunny. This is the peak tourist season, so popular destinations can be more crowded.

​

Hot Season - March to May

The hot season in Thailand is characterised by high temperatures and humidity. While it can be hot, it's also a great time to visit if you're looking to enjoy the beach and water activities. The islands and coastal areas are popular during this time, and you can find some relief in the ocean. Be prepared for occasional short rain showers.

​

Rainy Season - June to October

The rainy season in Thailand brings more frequent and heavy rainfall, especially from July to September. While some areas can experience flooding, the rain is often in the form of short, intense showers. The lush landscapes and fewer tourists can make this a unique and budget-friendly time to visit. The Andaman Sea and Gulf of Thailand coasts have different rainy patterns, so you might choose one over the other based on their conditions.
