Phuket Weather update up to 17th July 2015

The Sun is shining again and sea is calm...that is the good news since 15 July.

Patong beach  on 17 July 2015

But lest see what happen before: June left with very hot temperature, some clouds but not relevant rain falls in Phuket.

Patong Bay on 1st July 2015

Then July started with wind that got very strong around the 6th and brought heavy rain and storms for about ten days.

Strong wind for ten days

That was the situation until late afternoon on 15th July when changed and since yesterday Phuket went back to a very calm weather, sea is calm and only a light veil of clouds cover the sky.

Patong bay on 15 July 2015

So it is time again for all activities and to enjoy the sea out at the islands

Since one year the beaches are clean from chairs and small business and for those that like to relax on the beach is great to see how freely can walk along them

But keep in mind that from now until end of October it is very dangerous to swim. During Summer on Phuket West Coast rip currents are very strong and dangerous

Warning sign for rip currents

If like to fully enjoy beach life then stay few days in Phi Phi and specially on the east side, sheltered from wind and  waves

Monkey Beach in Phi Phi on 2nd July 2015

Or go to beautiful Racha Yai Island

Forecast look very good for next weeks for the holidays. There will be some rain for sure.

Review - Kay Marshall ship excursion to James Bond Island Private Tour

Dear Malila

Our group definitely enjoyed our day trip to James Bond Island including the delicious lunch. One of our group from New York and a seaasoned traveller thought it was the best day trip she had ever done (as a ship excursion). We appreciate also that we were returned to the port at the time requested

Regards

Kay Marshall

Phuket Weather update 6th to 16th June 2015

It is heavy rain since Sunday night and seems will be like this for next couple of days. The good news is that it is normal for the period and it is good for the forest and the water reserves.

Clouds cover Kathu hills - a rainy day today

Being an all year destination Phuket has always a lot of people that come to visit for the beaches, the sea and the informal and amusing atmosphere

So what to do now if you are here and it is raining a lot?

First of all enjoy holidays anyway, air temperature is between 26 and 30 Celsius and water temperature is above 28 Celsius.

Can see from the two pictures on this article that the situation can be very different just few km south of Phuket. This because the fat clouds full of water are coming from west and Phuket hills attract them and rain falls. The hills works like a wall leaving areas on the east side sheltered from rain.

Some moment and the view to south show blue sky over Phuket

So could be good to stay in Phi Phi for few days.

Another easy option is to move to Koh Samui where weather is much better at the moment and can fully enjoy holidays

Weather in Samui in June - Koh Nang Yuan Island

How to get from Phuket to Samui,?

The faster way is flying, BangkokAirways as direct flights from Phuket to Samui our times a day

PG 252 leaving Phuket at  9:35 am and arrives in Samui at 10:30 am
PG 254 leaving Phuket at  1:00 pm and arrives in Samui at   1:55 pm
PG 256 leaving Phuket at  4:00 pm and arrives in Samui at   4:55 pm
PG 258 leaving Phuket at  7:10 pm and arrives in Samui at   8:05 pm

Or can go with the cheaper option with a bus and ferry from Phuket to Samui

Two times a day is possible to go from Phuket to Samui with Fast ferry. The bus or minivan will take you to Donsak pier (four to five hours ) then 45 minutes ferry to Samui

Can leave Phuket at 7:00 am and arrive in Samui at 1:15 pm
or from Phuket at 10:00 am and arrive in Samui at 4:45 pm

So always a way to enjoy holidays in Thailand

Review - Thomas Jose - Phang Nga Tour and Sunset Dinner

Hi Francesco,

We reached safely yesterday evening. Would like to thank you and your team for arranging everything well and orderly during our visit. We really had a nice time and my kids really enjoyed a lot. Thanks for all the arrangements and recommendations you made. A very special thanks to our guide Bee, who was very friendly and took good care of our kids. Give the special regards to Aunty Bee from my kids Alitza and Austin. Both the drivers, the Captain, his wife and little Ki at the Sun Set dinner, all were really good and made us feel at home. Really was a good experience. Once again, thank you very much. Will recommend you to my friends and will contact you in future if we are visiting Phuket again.

Thanks

Thomas

Review - Melissa Lee - private tours and cooking class

Hi Francesco and team. 

Thank you so much for all the awesome tours

That you assisted us with. 

I have finally found a tour company that is reliable and doesn't treat their customers as random numbers.  We were probably not the easiest customers as we had loads going on in the background as we explained to you but 

Your fantastic organisational skills and friendliness made a massive contribution to an outstanding albeit short holiday.

The private long boat tour with Bee was incredible. She is a wonderful lady whom I hope to meet again. Lunar from the tubing tour was like a ray of sunshine and we loved being in her company.  The tubing was great and we lived the fact that it wasn't over run with people. Thanks for that excellent advice.

The highlights for me, however, was the private cooking class with Bee and Anne. It was so personal, Anne was so warm and welcoming, being in her home was a privilege and one I would have hated to miss. It was informative yet casual and I felt I was cooking with friends.

Your advice regarding that incredible restaurant, jok ......was spot on. 

What a place. We didn't want to leave. Thanks for going out your way to make and then reschedule our reservation.

Dee also went our her way to book us our unscheduled trip to watch Thai boxing,even instructing the driver to take us to collect the tickets. 

I will, without any hesitation, tell any other people that are planning on travelling to Thailand, not to waste their time with any other tour operator  and we will definitely be utilising your amazing companies services on our trip next year.

Kind regards

Melissa-Lee
