Phuket Weather February 2015

Weather in February is as expected, clear blue sky. The wind sometime has been bit stronger than normal making air temperature very pleasant.
Phuket Weather in February
Bungalow Bay on Valentine day 2015 - Racha Yai Island

Same as the sea that seems to be a bit cooler than usual.

Overall very good, just around Chinese new year (18 to 20 February) a tin line of clouds covered the sun and on 18 night few drops of rain made the night sleep great.

This will be the year of the goat in Chinese Lunar calendar

Time to enjoy sea and sightseeing to islands such as Racha Yai, see pictures here below

Review - Stephanie, Lasse and Sophie - Phi Phi Day tour with toddler

Dear Francesco and Diego,

We wanted to thank you both for making this trip happen for us. We all had a great time and your suggestion for me not to go on the speedboat was absolutely the right one. I had a fantastic time with my daughter on gorgeous Long Beach, whilst my husband enjoyed the speedboat tour.

Thank you again very very much for your efforts and apologise for the many back and forth emails.

I will certainly recommend your company to family and friends visiting Phuket.

All the best,

Stephanie

Phuket weather January 2015

We haven't done any Phuket weather update during the month simply because there is nothing else to say rather that weather in Phuket in January 2015 has been fantastic.

Cool breeze in the evening, only few drops of rain at begin of the month and sunshine
Phuket Stadium
Parade at Phuket Sarakul Stadium - the only rain in January 2015

Beaches are great without the long lines of sun beds and umbrellas, now people can take their own or rent the small chairs and umbrellas from local people. This give the beaches a retro look despite they look not in order. But why should everything be aligned.
Patong Beach

Much more space for those like to walk or play football and enjoy free beaches in Phuket

The month of January is perfect for any activities:

Diving in Phuket with Manta Rays
Great snorkeling at Racha Yai island
Enjoy a afternoon tour with sunset dinner on board

Sunset Dinner in Phuket
Sunset Cruise - Koh Keow Yai


For February looks like we are going to enjoy a another great month, the best for winter holidays in Thailand

Can also compare with weather during January 2014

Review - Deborah and Marian

Dear Malila.

We had a fantastic day on the Racha Yai tour, it was lovely and great value.

The staff were so helpful especially with my Mum. They helped her in and out of the boat and guided her when snorkelling.

The other tour was not so good.

It was bad weather and to be honest the description of the tour was a little misleading as we did not see the James Bond Islands.

The tour guide Julie had a sweater on and kept saying how cold she was. We couldn't see anything due to the bad weather and we kept getting wet due to the high waves.

It was so rough that we did not dare go to the toilet as the boat was lunging from side to side.

There was only beer and very cheap wine to purchase and no spirits.

The food was freezing and we had no lights at the back of the boat.

The toilet at the Marina was in a terrible state and if we had know it was going to take so long to get to the Marina we may not have gone in the first place.

I really think you should speak to the owners and recommend that they do not go out in bad weather.

Everyone on board was expecting something much different, some people got dressed up for the occasion only to be covered in sea spray.

It was a disaster and the worst tour I have ever done. As it was my Mums birthday I wish I had taken her for a nice dinner instead.

I will post a nice review on Trip Advisor for the other tour as I really enjoyed that one but not the other one.

The staff at your company were excellent and I will definitely recommend your company to others.

Thank you again for everything.

Kind Regards,
Deborah Sellers
