Phuket weather

The best weather in Phuket is generally considered to be during the “high season” from around November until March, when the temperatures are around 24 to 32 degrees, coupled with refreshing breezes and less rain. 10 day forcasts are usually pretty accurate, even up to 14 day weather forecasts.

The “low season” from May to September/October is the wettest time of year, but usually after a short period of heavy rain the skies clear and the sun will shine on thru. The “low season” also brings larger waves to Phuket which can be great fun for stronger swimmers and surfers but will put the sea out of bounds on many beaches.
