Cold-weather clothes definitely won’t be needed here – average temperatures in Khao Lak hover in the high twenties year-round. The best time to visit is during the dry season, which runs from November until the end of March. This is prime diving time, too. The April-October rainy season sees frequent heavy downpours and the odd thunderstorm. They’re usually over pretty quickly, though, and tend to arrive late afternoon or at night.
British citizens arriving by air can enter Thailand for 30 days without a visa. But you must have a passport valid for a minimum of 6 months from the date of entry.
