Best Time to Visit Thailand for Your Honeymoon
Best Time to Visit Thailand for Your Honeymoon Planning to head to Thailand straight after your wedding? Your wedding date will help us choose the best part of Thailand for your honeymoon.
The two coasts experience different monsoon seasons, giving us plenty of options with 11 months offering good weather and high temperature.
A spring or summer honeymoon: Koh Samui and Koh Phangan
February to August is generally a good time to visit Koh Samui and Koh Phangan, making them a lovely option for a summer honeymoon. September can also work, although the weather becomes less settled.
It’s convenient to island hop between these islands, and I can prebook your boat transfers. That means less stress while you enjoy your tropical adventure.
A winter or spring honeymoon: Thailand’s Andaman coast
November to April is generally the best time for Phuket, Koh Phi Phi, Koh Yao Yai, Koh Lanta and Krabi, with the most settled weather usually between December and March.
For an incredible adventure, you could combine Elephant Hills with your beach stay. Just remember that Khao Sok is a rainforest, so showers are possible all year.
What if your wedding is in October?
October is a month I’d approach carefully if sunshine and beach time are your priorities, as monsoon rain can affect both coasts. Koh Samui and Koh Phangan can also experience heavy rain during November and December, so I’d avoid these islands during those months if beach weather is your priority.
My honeymoon tip: Before setting your heart on a particular Thai island, let’s check how it suits your honeymoon dates. Choosing the right area gives you the best chance of good beach weather.
Which couples would Thailand suit?
Thailand is a lovely choice for couples who want adventure, great food and exploring alongside beautiful hotels, swim-out rooms or private pool villas and beach time. It particularly suits those who enjoy moving between a few places rather than staying in one resort.
