Best time to go to Nai Thon Beach

December to March is the golden weather window in Phuket, as the rainy season has ended and you’ll miss the hotter temperatures in April and May. The island still feels well and truly tropical, though – it rarely dips below 31˚C, but the sea breeze here makes it feel cooler than the more humid mainland. If you don’t mind the rain, it’s pretty quiet here from July to October, with a more low-key vibe and fewer crowds. And it’s not rain like you’re used to in the UK – it’s bath-water warm, and tends to fall hard all at once before the sun comes out again. Keep a light waterproof poncho rolled up in your bag and you can stay nice and dry while you’re out exploring.
