Best time to go to Thailand
Thailand can be visited all year round, with the exception of the period from May to November due to the risk of rain and cyclones.
The sea in Thailand is warm all year round, however it is advisable to go to areas where sudden downpours arrive.
A visit from March to May is advisable because there is the "Thai Water Festival" and in April the Thai New Year is celebrated.
Temperatures in this period reach 35°C.
Climate in Thailand
Thailand has a very pleasant climate, defined as tropical monsoon, therefore humid and hot, with high peaks between March and May, but mitigated by the monsoons in some months.
Winter temperatures usually drop to 15°C especially in Northern Thailand, while the highest peaks reach 40°C in April in the central and southern parts.
In the capital Bangkok temperatures are always high: in April they reach peaks of 35°C and in December, there are around 31°C.
