Hi There

I have been to Thailand in October and it was absolutley fine! We stayed at Koh Samui and had a fabulous time - weather and climate were really nice. I think if you are planning a visit end of Sept beg October for the better as I know whilst we were there locals had said there monsoon had just ended. Although the rain tends to be of an evening younever can tell these days with the bizzarre weather patterns can you!!!!

Malaysia is also nice November time and March.

Our son and his wife were married in September 2004, they delayed their honeymoon to Thailand until November because of the monsoon season they had lovely weather, they were home 4 weeks before the terrible Tsanami. It didnt stop them returning the end of last November beginning of December, out of 3 weeks they had only 4 days of sunshine, the rest of the time it poured with rain, still very hot though. The locals said since the Tsanami the weather has gone mad.

I was also wondering about something to do with this...

I am getting married in august and we are wanting to honeymoon in thailand at the beginning of the month. Is this a real danger to be going to Phuket at this time of the year?

Hello

Ive been also in October its the Back end of the moonsoon season's and around 4pm everyday it Rained! and Boy does it Rain but after an hour or so it stopped and all was well !

Diving Isnt great , due to the moonsoon weather churns up the sea and reduces visibility .

But as far as going for sun , and a good time go's ..... you will be fine .

Hi,

I have just booked a 2week holiday to Thailand- Phuket beg of September, I was told by the travel agent that it tends to rain for an hour- and quite hard, but after that it clears up. I have been reading up on Thailand and i am quite worried that i am going to have really bad weather, it seems that NO-ONE goes to Thailand in September, can someone please advise me if it really is bad weather or if in fact the travel agent was right and it is a hard shower for an hour then back to the sunbathing???

Hi there, we were in Bangkok in September 2006 and Chiang Mai last year in September and the weather was lovely, just a shower on 2 afternoons while in Bangkok but saw no rain in Chiang Mai last year.
Hope this helps.

Hi there

I was in bangkok and phuket in september a few years ago.

Like any other time you take your chances with weather.

Very humid and did rain a couple of times but tropical rain not the usual manchester stuff all over in a couple of minutes.

was a few thunder storms as well.

I would go in sept again but as i said before you always have to take a chance

Thailand gets a lot of tourists all year long! When it is cold in the U.S. or Germany it is high season in Thailand, from around the middle of October through the end of January. Hotel prices will be at the highest in December and January, especially for the holidays.

September is low season for hotel pricing. Fewer tourists during this time period. Yes, there will be a little more rain during this time period - but this is still a good time to visit anyway!

When it rains it does not usually last too long anyway. When it rains it doesn't rain all over Thailand at the same time. Rain is a good excuse to take in a movie, shop in a mall, go to a restaurant or bar or even hit the sack! Often the rain falls at night time. In the South, Phuket for instance, the rain season lasts a little longer. Some days you may not be able to go boating. But there is always plenty of sunshine for a nice sunburn!

You do not have to be at a beach to get a tan in Thailand. Thailand is warm all year long, top to bottom! You could even get a tan in Chiang Mai or Bangkok!

Go when you can find the time!
