1. The best time to visit Phuket Thailand

The period from November to February next year is always the best climate and weather to visit Phuket. At this time, the climate of Phuket seems warm, pleasant, neither too hot nor rainy, so it is very suitable to participate in recreational activities, enjoy the taste of the sea and visit must-see attractions.

November and December are thought to be the beginning of the tourist season in Phuket. The weather is very cool now and gradually less rain, which is very suitable for outdoor activities and festivals.

January and February are the most popular months for tourists to visit Phuket. The rainfall is very low and the sky is clear. This is also a beautiful sunny time, quiet waters ideal for swimming, scuba diving or kick-off trips. However, at this time, city traffic is quite busy, the prices of travel services, accommodation and shopping are highest in these months.

With the perfect weather, Phuket towns and beaches are always busy to welcome tourists in these months. February is also the month to welcome the Chinese New Year in Phuket with an impressive fireworks display.

2. Best Activities in Phuket

Despite being a predominantly Buddhist country, Thailand still welcomes Christmas at least in the commercial sense. The tourist towns are splendidly decorated, traditional turkey meals are served at hotels and restaurants. The event to celebrate the new year is celebrated with a fantastic fireworks display on Patong Beach.

Every February in Phuket, the most anticipated festival is the Chinese New Year of the Chinatown community. You can immerse yourself in the atmosphere of New Year here with many interesting activities. Red lanterns will be hung all over the streets of this Chinese city to celebrate the New Year.

You can go snorkeling all year round in Phuket, but the best time of the year is from November to February. Because the temperatures are very warm, there is little rain so the water is clear. In this season, you will have great days to explore the ocean and watch the yellow sunshine through the clear water creating a shimmering, extremely rare beauty.

If you feel snorkeling is too "soft" for the journey to conquer the sea, then go to the west coast of Phuket. Where there are waves high enough and strong enough for you to realize the desire to "ride the waves".
