Is the wet season worth it?

It can be: resorts are quieter and many showers pass quickly. Plan a covered backup for the ceremony and dinner, and expect rough surf on west-coast beaches from May to October: red flags mean don’t swim.

Which dates should we check?

  • Australian school holidays and Christmas–New Year are the busiest weeks.
  • Resort minimum stays often apply in peak season.
  • Thai public holidays and festivals (Songkran in April, Loy Krathong in November) can affect availability.

Frequently asked questions

Is it too hot?

Highs are 31–34°C all year. Late-afternoon ceremonies are coolest.

Does it rain all day in the wet season?

Usually not; heavy showers often come and go. September and October are the wettest.

How far ahead should we book?

For December–March, many couples book resorts a year or more ahead.
