Best time to visit Thailand

Cool and dry season (peak season): From November to February, much of Thailand enjoys lower humidity and pleasant temperatures around 24–30°C (75–86°F), ideal for city sightseeing and beach escapes. Hot season (shoulder season): From March to May, temperatures in Bangkok and coastal areas can rise to 30–36°C (86–97°F), with stronger sun and occasional haze, but quieter attractions. Rainy season (low season): From June to October, expect regular showers and short downpours, especially in the afternoons, with temperatures around 26–32°C (79–90°F); this period brings greener landscapes and fewer crowds.
