Cool Season (Late November - February) - This season correlates with the high season for tourism. In the Northern and North Eastern regions of the country, temperatures range from a cool 8 degrees C to a daily high of 23 degrees C. There is no rain and the skies are cloudless. In the Central Plains, which includes Bangkok the weather is perfect with clear skies and daily temperatures in the range of 16 degrees C and 28 degrees C.
Koh Samui is experiencing the effects of the North-East Monsoon at this time of the year so there is daily rain, although the showers tend to come in short bursts, with sunshine at other times of the day. Phuket will experience cloudless skies and beautiful sunny days with little or no rainfall at this time, so will be in high season.
Hot season (March - June) - At this time of the year will experience its hottest and most dry period. At times the weather can become oppressive, particularly in Bangkok and the North-East plateau, and this time of the year is often referred to as the 'hot dry season' and continues until the tropical rains break towards June or July. At this time of year receives less visitors and rates at hotels are lower than at other times, so it can be a favourable time of year to visit. Many people love to visit at this time of year for the famous Songkran festival.
Summer season (July - October) - This is the period when receives the annual rains brought along by the South-West Monsoon. The month of September records the highest rainfall and shortest hours of sunshine for the year, generally due to heavy cloud cover. Also known as the wet season, this time of year is a perfect time to see covered in a lush green cover, with rice fields, streams and rivers brimming.At this time of the year the weather in the two main resorts of Phuket and Koh Samui is reversed from that of the Winter Season. Koh Samui has its 'dry season' with little if any rain and experiences weeks of stunning cloudless skies and warm sunny days. Phuket at this time of the year has regular periods of rain and the South-West monsoon brings prevailing winds that cause higher seas and generally less favourable conditions for water based activities.
