When to Visit
The best time to visit Thailand depends entirely on what you’d like to do when you get there, where in the Kingdom you plan to visit and the type of holiday you enjoy. Weather is most comfortable from November to February but with distinct patterns noticed throughout the year:
- Warm and dry Season = November to February. Warm temperatures, sunshine, and infrequent showers.
- Hot and dry season = March to May. High temperatures and uncomfortable levels of humidity but a low chance of rainfall.
- Hot and wet season = June to August. Heavy downpours and high humidity.
- Cool and wet season = September to October. Comfortable temperatures but rainfall is at its highest.
As Thailand is quite a large country there are geographical variations to consider too.
The northern part of Thailand (Chiang Mai) is a mountainous region which experiences the most variation in its weather patterns. It is less humid than the southern part of Thailand and can be quite chilly during the dry season however, March to May sees temperatures higher than the rest of the country.
The southern part of Thailand has a more tropical climate with temperatures remaining relatively consistent throughout the year but rainfall fluctuating considerably.
- Hot and dry season = March to May. High temperatures and uncomfortable levels of humidity but a low chance of rainfall.
- Hot and wet season = June to August. Heavy downpours and high humidity.
- Cool and wet season = September to October. Comfortable temperatures but rainfall is at its highest.
