Very informative video. Good work. I am also planning to visit Thailand and Malaysia next week on a family trip. If you know, can you please provide a brief idea about whether it is recommended to visit Malaysia in June or not? Waiting for your reply. Thanks in advance.
Thanks for your comment. I'm not an expert in Malaysia travel, but I have been to KL and Cameron Highlands many times. I got to say it depends on where you're going - maybe check out some of these websites www.selectiveasia.com/malaysia-holidays/weather/june because it can be quite different from one city to another. By the way, it hasn't been raining for almost 5 days in a row now here in Bangkok, I think there's a chance you'll stay pretty dry here in Thailand :) It hasn't been raining as much as expected this year.
June is peak low season, not many tourists and not everything open with the beaches suffering from potentially dangerous waves. It will pour rain heavily, then the rain stops. The heavy rain cleans out the drains and can pollute the seas a bit, that said l enjoyed it when i went to Karon in June and this year i went in May and will also visit in September. I prefer these times as you avoid the peak season and prices are lower.
Thank you for the wonderful information...we are planning a short trip to Thailand in August and booked our stays. First 2 nights in BKK, 2 nights in Koh Samet, 2 nights in Pattaya and last night in BKk. Since it's rain season, I'm wondering if i should cancel my Koh Samet bookings since it might be dangerous to be on the boat during the rain (just in case it's a heavy down pour)...what would you suggest?
Thank you for your comment. We appreciated it. Would it be bad to say it depends on your luck as well? :( But that’s kind of true. If you don’t arrive during a storm, there’s a 5-70% chance of rain. Rayong province (where Koh Samed is located) won’t have daily rain until mid-September to mid-October. But again, it depends if you come during a storm. I’ve been to Koh Samed during the rain back when I was in college. On our last day, the sky was dark, and a storm was coming, so we couldn’t leave as planned in the morning. But guess what? By 10:30, the sky cleared up, and the boat was ready to leave. So you never know. Just make sure that if you come, you don’t take the risk of going out to sea if it looks like there will be a storm. And there's a chance that you may have to postpone your departure boat ride. Keep your schedule a bit flexible for that. One last thing: consider whether you are serious about having bright blue skies and a blue sea, say if you're a photographer. Chances are, it might not be picture-perfect. Even right now, it rains only half an hour to two hours a day (intermittently), but it’s not sunny with blue skies. It’s rather overcast.
As far as weather goes, it really depends on your luck, unfortunately 🤷♀. I'm in Bangkok and can report real-time conditions for you. It rained heavily only once last week, with a bit of a sprinkle once or twice 🌧. Yesterday was gloomy with dark clouds ☁, but no rain. Today, it's blue skies and super sunny 🌞. July isn't the peak of the rainy season yet, so it's not likely to rain every day unless a storm hits. For Krabi, the weather will be similar to Bangkok, but since it's a beach city, expect it to be less predictable with more abrupt changes 🌦. From my experience, trust the boat companies and talk to more than one to see if they have any cautions about going out to sea that day. If a storm hits while you're in the middle of the sea, it can be very scary 🌊. Check TikTok for recent videos on Phi Phi weather or storms-some show how quickly conditions can change. Personally, I wouldn't risk being out at sea during a storm again.
i am planning to visit Phuket in starting week of August. How the crowd is in August ? We dont want to be only people around the Patong? one mor question is there a possibility to not attend the activities due to weather conditions
I don't think Phuket has ever really be that quiet (except in 2020-2021 of course), to be honest. You won't be the only person in Patong, rain or shine. People say it's "overly touristy" for that reason. Regarding activities, many islands in the Andaman Sea (the beautiful ones that are national parks) are mostly closed during that month. But on the Thai Gulf coast, you can still enjoy island hopping on that side.

Yeah, I also like that it’s less crowded at the beach and everything really.
