When's the rainy season in Thailand? (if there is one!)
Hi All
I'm planning a 4 month trip to Oz and Thailand from january to end of april. I'm trying to figure out when to go where first. Does Thailand have a rainy season? if so, when is it usually? I'm thinking of going to Oz for about 10 of my 16 weeks and then go to Thailand in midmarch to april..but dont' want to be stuck in a rain slicker the whole time! Any help is greatly appreciated. You can email me at Cheers Matt |

Thailand is a big place (not as big as Canada, admittedly) and the weather cycles vary substantially from one part of the country to another. You can find rainy seasons by plugging major cities into a site like www.worldclimate.com and looking for the peak precipiation periods. miguel -- Hit The Road!

Thailand is fine for all of that time, although January is the high tourist season. Actually, it is also high season in Australia as schools take the summer break from Christmas through to the end of January or the start of February (varies from sate to state). Weather-wise, the best course would be Thailand first, avoiding the hot and wet (Northern Australia) and hot and dry (Southern Australia) in January. Then straight to Southern Australia in mid February (still hot, but everyone's back at work or school), working your way north as the weather cools over March and April. |
