After all, I so want to "tear myself away" in full force, recharge your energy and mood for a whole year ahead. And so that unforeseen situations do not happen, first of all you should pay attention to the climatic conditions of the country where you are going to rest. By the way, Thailand is a favorite place for many of our compatriots, in spite of the high cost and duration of the flight. But this country has a special climate, and it can not be ignored. In particular, its characteristic feature is the rainy season, when it is simply impossible to enjoy warm sea water on some Thai beaches. Therefore, in order that your holiday was perfect, and remembered, we will tell you about the features of the rainy season in Thailand. And you yourself decide what time and place to go for a vacation.
How is the rainy season in Thailand?
In general, the term "rainy season" refers to the period in time of the year when a large, disproportionate amount of precipitation falls. The phenomenon is more typical of tropical latitudes. Typical is the weather in Thailand, but the rainy season, however, has its own characteristics. The fact is that this state has a great length - a little less than two thousand kilometers from north to south. Due to this in one kingdom there are different climatic zones in which the rainy season occurs at different times. Because of this, rest in Thailand is possible all year round. And the rains in Thailand are not 24-hour torrential rains. In fact, the moisture falls a little: rains, although stormy, but short-lived - last about half an hour, sometimes more. And they are warm, and precipitation falls most often at night or early in the morning. Therefore, for dinner, air and water in the sea warm up enough to swim. The only negative - the weather can not be called sunny, the sky is usually overcast. But, as a rule, this does not prevent you from getting a beautiful tan in the end.
When does the rainy season begin in Thailand?
As mentioned above, rains fall in different regions of the country at different times. For example, the rainy season in Phuket, a beautiful island resort, usually begins in July and lasts until November. The maximum amount of precipitation falls, as a rule, in the last summer month - August or autumn in September. And the sunny hot days are waiting for tourists from December to March.
And if we talk about the rainy season in Pattaya, then the rainy overcast season here begins also from April, but the greatest amount of precipitation falls in early autumn, in September. But as many tourists note, in fact, rains are rare and not so abundant in comparison with other regions.
As for the capital of the Kingdom of Thailand - Bangkok, the rainy season here begins from the first summer month, and ends in September. But the best time to relax in the city - from February to May, when clear weather is set, the truth is that the sun is burning incredibly.
The rainy season on Krabi, the southern provincial resort region, begins, as well as Phuket or Pattaya , from April to May and lasts until the middle of autumn. Rains here are quite often. But not at all long - about half an hour. But then good weather is established (sometimes up to 30 ° C), but the air is very moist.
Unlike the above resorts of Thailand in Samui, the rainy season begins in September. But abundant downpours, strong winds, floods, high humidity, unsuitable sea for bathing - this period lasts from November to mid-December or even to January.
