Best time to visit
There are only two seasons in Thailand, summer and rainy season. The Gulf of Thailand lies to the east and is separated from the Andaman Sea by the Thai peninsula. The best time to visit Phuket, Phang Nga and Krabi is between mid November and April to avoid the monsoon rains that occur May to October. Areas such as Koh Samui and Hat Yai are best visited from December to June. If you are planning to visit both sides of Thailand, December to April would be the best time.
Not to miss while you are in the Thailand
Phang Nga Bay… is a phenomenal inlet with sheer limestone cliffs shooting vertically out of the emerald green sea. It is the location of James Bond Island, from the film The Man with the Golden Gun. Nearby beautiful Maya Bay was the shooting location for the film The Beach. These two incredible beautiful locations along with Koh Pannyi, a village on stilts above the water, are just some of the must see places. The nice thing about sailing in Thailand in this area is that it offers rugged uninhabited beauty as well as lively resorts with great dining and fun nightlife.
