Phuket weather end of June 2013 - 28-29 and 30 June

We have decided to make this update for last week end of June all in once reason is that there are no news about the weather.

Kamala beach during Summer

Weather is now great with sunshine, calm sea  and weak wind that make days great and not too hot. Temperature are high as normal during summer, all activities are possible, don't forget to rest and enjoy holidays too.

If like something different for the evening then Phuket Town is the place, specially during week ends, pubs and restaurants where can blend with Phuket people life. Best guide about places in Phuket is our friend Jamie's Blog.

But lets also see how was then June in Phuket, looking back during the month we started with variable weather first week of June,  then we had the mid month heavy rains with floods, until wind became stronger and wiped clouds away and was the preparation for this great end of month that will bring us into July that usually offers very good sea and weather conditions.

Are you interested in going for a pleasure cruise or a snorkelling or diving trip but want to avoid crowded boats and reefs, well there is an answer, charter your own boat and set your own itinerary.
Here at Easy Day Thailand we have a whole range of boats to suit different size groups with different comfort levels.

You want a fun day out hopping from island to island, the luxury day cruiser Cherry Pie is ideal for a small family or group of friends to tour Phang Nga bay or Island hop along the coast of Phuket, for a larger group of up to 8 people we have the Tarn Tawan a 47 ft Sport Cruiser which can accommodate a small group for overnight trips as well as day tours.

Tarn Tawan

For an adrenaline fuelled day you could spend the day hopping between the islands on Phang Nga Bay in The Dolphin – a high speed RIB (Rigid Inflatable Boat), in effect this is a giant jet ski for up to 10 people with an expert captain at the helm – all the thrills of high speed turns and wave hopping with the comfort blanket of experience and expertise.

The Dolphin

You want to Cruise the Andaman, maybe go snorkelling or diving in The Similan Islands?
We have a number of fast and comfortable pleasure cruisers such as the Chom Tawan, Shard 1 and Princess 42 that allow you to travel in style and luxury, also great for small parties with excellent barbecue and cooking facilities.

MV Sai Mai

Not into speed but want comfort? Then our Liveaboard / Day Cruise boat The MV Sai Mai is perfect. She can accommodate 6 guests comfortably on overnight trips and up to 12 guests on day charters. Slow but spacious and comfortable the Sai Mai is perfect for sightseeing, snorkelling or diving trips for single days or an overnight trip. For longer trips she sleeps 6 people in comfortable en-suite cabins, with plenty of high quality Thai and western food coming from our compact kitchen thanks to the skills of our super cook. A fantastic and different way to see sights such as Phi Phi's Maya bay – about the only way you'll get to see the bay without row upon row of speedboats parked on the beach.

Having a Party? How about a mobile party venue, the catamaran Shangani happily accommodates up to 25 people or for a bigger celebration the Schooner Jabu will entertain 50 people in luxury cruising the islands as you celebrate your special occasion.

Interested in a Fishing charter? We have a specialist game fishing and trolling boat available with a highly experienced crew, only a few members of your family are interested in fishing, no problem the boat also doubles as a snorkelling boat, come into the islands from the fishing grounds, moor up on one of the buoys close to the reef and have a relaxing lunch interspersed with snorkelling or swimming adventures.

Interested in a charter but not sure what type of boat to choose, we're happy to help, let us know what you want to do and we'll marry your needs to the boats and present you with options

Phuket Weather 26 June 2013

A calm day with sunshine and some clouds, no wind and overall all normal situation for the incoming month of July. Late afternoon saw some clouds but no rain all day, now without wind will feel more the heat and humidity.

Wind is down since few three days now so waves are very small and gently splash on the beach during low tide at sunset. So everyone take a moment to relax and enjoy the view.

If you are in Patong and like to see some local life then at sunset go to Loma Park where many people like to chill out , have a light dinner and children play at the park.

Al's Laemson Resort Koh Samui - Inspection Report

I stayed at Al's Laemson resort in June 2013 as part of our on going process to check the standard of the hotels that we offer. To be honest, I didn't warm to this resort. That's partly because I was staying  there by myself and the resort was virtually empty of other guests. Al's Laemson is a resort more suited to couples than solo travelers. This resort gets very good reviews on Trip Advisor.

Al's Laemson Resort swimming pool

Al's Laemson has a good swimming pool and a nice spacious setting that winds down to the beach. The beach restaurant is cool and fresh. The design of the rooms seemed somewhat clinical to me and the layout of the stand alone bungalows was a bit odd with the verandas all facing in towards each other. Inside the rooms the facilities were fine, everything was spotlessly clean and the rooms are certainly big. The veranda of my bungalow was huge but as it got the sun nearly all day long was usually too hot to sit out on. I personally didn't like the styling of the bungalows, others may like the minimalist style.

Al's Laemson Resort is located in the north east of Koh Samui. It's actually on the north part of Chaweng Beach but it feels like a different place altogether. It takes 10-15 minutes to walk into Chaweng centre, or a free shuttle is available several times per day. It's a picturesque little bay that is nice to stroll on but it's too shallow for swimming.

Watch this space over the coming weeks as we will be adding more Koh Samui resorts to our Easy Day Thailand Selected Resort recommendations in Koh Samui.
