When is it High or Low Season in Phuket?
High season begins in November and features higher percentage occupancy in hotels and higher prices for goods and services. In Phuket, the change in prices can be pretty dramatic. The weather is generally clear and sunny. The coolest weather is in late December through early January. Peak high season is the Christmas-New Year period, and most school holidays. It’s crowded and more expensive. Mid-April through to October is known as the “low season” The seasons are the opposite on the east coast (the Gulf of Siam side.) Ko Samui for example, has its high season during Phuket’s low season.
