Best Time to Visit Islands in Thailand
Thailand has three different seasons – hot, cold and rainy. However, Thailand’s weather can vary greatly depending on the location and coast.
I break down the weather month by month and focus on the islands in Eastern and Southern Thailand rather than the mainland.
The infographic below shows 22 islands that I consider them are the best and most popular among tourists. According to the geography, I will classify these 22 islands into five zones.
Therefore, it’s easier for you to see the best time to visit Thailand islands. Also, you’re able to plan ahead to get the most out of your trip.
