why not?
i love rainy season.
you will get a change to see one of the biggest rain you ever seen in your life.
and do not forget the thunder which can shake you whenever it go off.
but it will never go on more than 45 mins. (from what i have seen and i am not talking about typhoon.)
usually only 20-30 mins, 1 time a day or 2, and every thing will back to normal.
I just went last march, it was pretty gd at bangkok. no raining cats & dogs. Last july my frens did went there isnt much clothings as they r clearing all old stuffs... etc.
Yes, the rainy period is not recommended. If you're in Bangkok, parts of the city may get flooded due to the poor drainage system. November and December is the best time to visit Thailand as it is cooler then.
Be ready for rain in July. I went to Bangkok, Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai last March 2007, the weather was really hot and humid. They say that Thailand is best from November until February where its a lot cooler.
Can only speak for Phuket: July might be rainy but not all the time and on top it's still very warm. But on certain beaches like Karon you shouldn't go swimming due to heavy waves. The first time I came here (also July) i only experienced a few showers which lasted only approx. 2 hours.
It may be raining but any time is still a good time to travel to Thailand.
Basically, for both cities, November to May is the dry season and the rest of the year is wet.
yes July is during the rainy season, you could get dumped on at least once a day usually in the early evening. This is what the tourist industrial calls it low season and prices are low the high season is November Thur January, prices are higher but less change of rain if any at all.
It is the rainy season but its still the best time to go. It pisses down for about one hour a day but its still baking hot over 30 c. Also its the low season,everything is much cheaper then,gee i love Phuket man,and Thailand ,been 7 times,gorgeous gorgeous girls.
