What's your favorite season in Thailand? The Rainy Season? 🌧(May - October) The Hot Season? 🌞(March & April) The Cooler Season? 🌤(November - February)

The sounds of the rain falling onto the umbrella is relaxing 😅

As I’m Thai, I love the rainy season. Everything to fresh, relax. I love to go outside while raining when I’m young.

Did anyone else notice how Paddy coordinated his pale yellow shirt to beautifully compliment the yellow drapes in his hotel room? Looked like a professional photo shoot out of Home and Garden magazine! You never overlook the small details, Paddy. This is why we love you!

Rainy season init mate. Bit of rain never hurt anyone.

As a Thai, whenever someone asks me when the best period to visit Thailand is, i always answer rainy season. Everything is green. The mountains are beautiful. The air is fresh. The sky…..yes it’s cloudy and rainy, but there’s some part of the day that it’s sunny and rain stop. The beach ans sea is not much clouded with people. The weather is not too hot and not cold. Relax feeling. It’s the best period of the year. Thank you for the video.

Rain = Fresh Air = Lively Tree = Cleaner Ground = Cooler = More Nature Sound for Your Peace of Mind... 😍☺️

Shut up Paddy 😂. Do not tell people to come during “ rainy” season. Just left Koh Lanta- had beachfront room at resort with pool all to ourselves. Discounted room, town nice and quiet. Great time to visit- we are regulars May- June. Wife Thai- bring kids to visit family. Playing in the ocean during a downpour- love it.

Rainy season is amazing! Vibes etc with beach,mountains and forests?? God I’d love to be there

No Brit wants to fly 15 hours to film rainy Thailand; we already get enough grey clouds and rain in the UK. We've had no summer this year and BTW, no one wants to read a book or bring a laptop either. We visited this year in June and July. We had 17 days and only one single day rained off. The other 16 days were sunny, red hot and offered calm seas for snorkelling on Phi Phi and Krabi. I'd encourage anyone to visit Thailand in summer. It's cheaper, less crowded and the vast majority of the time, the weather is excellent. There are calm waters for snorkelling and swimming on Phi Phi and Krabi while you can surf the waves on Phuket. The bugs were around but not excessively. We did get badly bitten by mozzies though. Its the tropics and people should just accept it

One of the great advantages with rainy season for people like me it brings out all the best wildlife, many of me my friends travel to various countries all over the world to photograph snakes, Spiders, reptiles and amphibians, this may not be everyone's cup of tea but 1000s of us love it, while you can still find these species most times of the year, in the rainy season you see some species that you normally wouldn't in dry season 😊

I always enjoyed the business benefits like discounts on my travels during the rainy season in Thailand. Thanks for taking me down memory lane Paddy.

Um... I'm gonna admit that I haven't tuned into this channel properly for about six months. Now I don't know exactly what's happened in that time but the quality of these vids has gone uber exponential. It's not just face to camera, it's not just the edit or the shoot - EVERYTHING has taken a such a massive leap forward. This latest series of islands are an absolute pleasure to watch. Like there's even art direction now with the shirt colours. Like holy crap! Takes a lot to get wowed on YT these days - especially if you live in Thailand and hardly ever watch Thai vloggers - but holy wow, dude. Well done. 🙌🙏

I enjoyed Koh Chang in late June this year. I loved the rainy season. Less crowds, the air is fresher, cooler air. This was a great video to see before I left to Thailand. Keep up the great work.

I love Nov-Dec-Jan!! Had the best time ever

I'm Asian-Australian, grew up in SEA and used to live in Sukhumvit. Rainy season is my favourite. Thank you for doing this video, much easier to reference this video than to explain yet again by rainy season is still fine to visit.

I love the rain on the ocean. It's when the two most incredible forces of nature meet, the ocean and the weather.

I will take the rainy season any day over the hot season. Always enjoy your videos Paddy. Koh Mack looks beautiful. If you like to explore by rivers rainy season is the best when the rivers are full and flowing. Will be there in a few days. Drinks on me!

Great video Paddy! The reason Samui had such high rainfall in November is because that’s slap bang in the middle of it’s rainy season. The gulf of Thailand and the Andaman Sea have different rainy seasons. Really important to mention.

I live in the high desert so I love me some rain.

Even with the rain, the island looks inviting! I think attitude matters when you are traveling... you make it good or bad depending on how you choose to react - rain or shine. I think your pros and cons list was great!

I too enjoy the rainy season in Thailand. Less tourists, cheaper prices and slightly cooler weather. Koh Samui and the islands around it have a slightly different rainy season than most of Thailand. I currently live there. It's typically November to the beginning of January.

I from arabia 🐪 and any tropical rain, is pleasure for me.

Thanks mate. Always love getting to Koh Mak. One of my favourite islands.

Reminds me of the rainy season in Florida. Not rain all day every day and it cools you down.

Rain activates life in everything👌🏽

Love the rainy season, the waterfalls run full and beautiful.

It’s important to mention that Thailand has multiple monsoon cycles that affect different regions of the country at different times of the year. November is the height of the rainy season in the Gulf, but the Andaman side has great weather during that time.

Alot of people head to Bali when rainy season starts , their may-oct being the best time to visit

I love the rainy season the sound on nature is fantastic!

Hey paddy! I love your vidéos! Thaïland wait for me ❤️

The annual monsoon is caused by the significant temperature difference between the land and the water, in this case the Indian Ocean. The land heats up much faster and this creates a low pressure area over the land. This draws in the moist air from the Indian Ocean over the land. These wet air masses encounter the hot air and rise. Rising allows for cooling and condensation of the air which results in heavy rainfall. Anyway a bit of a long explanation, thought you might be interested.

OMG. 2 months ago we were praying for some rain. Refresh the golf courses. Clear the dusty and smokey air. Payers are answered and a big shower everyday now. But lots of sun too.

Last year I spend 2 moths in Thailand, from mid September to mid November and I couldn't recommend it enough. Sure it rained here and there, but not everyday. Usually 1 or 2 hours on late afternoon. I really enjoyed less people and much lower prices. I was afraid it's gonna be always cloudy and gray, but actually I've had plenty of sun.

It’s such a good content to turn negative points into positive points!! I love rain even though living in the UK which the Brits would moan about it!! Raining in Thailand means cooler and happier ❤❤❤

Absolutely love the rain in Thailand! More KZfaqrs should show more rainy days!

My fantasy vacation: sitting under an awning watching the rain fall into the water. ❤

Experiencing some of that rain here in HCMC Vietnam as well. Stay warm and cozy!

Love this channel! Thank you for your work! Vietname was my fav season Great job! Love the edits and the drone shots! Beautiful

Beautifully made video. Felt relaxed watching it and loved the pace and honest reviews with good humour

Love your rain jacket logo! 😅😅. Saving this one as well…..😁

Rain or shine.. paradise ❤

Hiya Paddy. Rain or shine. A beautiful place to stay. Rain or shine. I would be happy. I love the sound of the rain and love a good storm. Great advice. Always informative. Love the pros and cons. Great video. I Look forward to you bringing Miss P here. Wishing you a wonderful week.

Showed this video to my mom. Now she understands why I love Thailand. Keep up the great work Paddy. Love your video's.

Love rainy season along the beach .

I see so many misconceptions expressed by tourists about Phuket and rainy season. They think from May on it’s just pouring all day every day it seems, but the reality is that May-August are generally quite nice. Can have some heavy showers but they’re typically brief, but September and October are predominantly overcast and with more rain, the only months I really don’t recommend. We’ve barely had rain this year, we are praying for more here

South gulf of Thailand is the exception ... Samui and sonhgkla, their wet season is Oct-Jan when it's driest in Phuket and the north and east. Samui is fairly the same from Feb to Sep.

I like Paddy his new dreamy voice, kind of an tribute to the old bike..

Love the video! I am def a fan of the cooler season!

i can't wait to move there

"The Darth Face". Very cool! 😂😂😂

Love this video! It looks so relaxing with all that rain!

The 11-3 during the Thai hot season is brutal, Managing or avoiding it is critical to enjoying Thailand long term. I grew up in a place that gets up to 34c in the summer but that Thai heat is humbling.

Unless you are one of those who never leave their bungalow/pub and go to the beach anyway, you will quickly learn to hate it. At some point everything feels always wet, your clothes even your bed. And the whole nature and beach (and people) start to look rather depressing. Luckily the rainy season in Thailand rages not everywhere at the same time so I can avoid it... because I love the sun 🌞

I love rainy season for 2 reasons. 1. Im a bad planner, so while it rains I look for things to do. 2. Im kinda introvert, so less people in raining season.

I was in Samui last November and luckily most of the trip was when it wasn’t raining. I enjoyed it so much!

I love the rain. I'll be in Koh Lanta for 2 weeks in October with my 7 year old granddaughter. We will still have fun.

Yup! We have rainy season in Queensland…and cyclones….wouldn’t be tropical without the rainy season

Thailand looks beautiful in the rain :)

I enjoyed this video. I went to Koh Mak many years ago and it doesn't seem to have changed much. I know it's trivial, but the vowel sound in "Koh" ( เกาะ) is a short one, like the vowel in got.😊 Just say "got" but replace the "t" with a glottal stop.

Im one of the weirdos that loves rainy season!

i love rainy season. Just watch your step on shiny surfaces such as a marble porch. Went flying back in October during a monsoon. dcb

What a fantastic island. You're certainly finding some lovely places Paddy. Cheers

We were just in Thailand in April during hot season and the heat was INTENSE. We'll be back soon while it's rainy season, but Thailand in any season is never something I will complain about haha we love it there

ผมชอบฤดูฝน ผมว่ามันคลาสสิกดีคับ เสียงฝนและนำฝน🎉❤❤

We were there about a week ago. My wife said she wished you had warned us more about the sand flies.

Video feels great, well recorded. So relaxed! These lightning strikes at the beginning are AI, you can't fool me 😜

Nice one Paddy. Only left Koh Mak 2 weeks ago

waterfalls are more beautiful, mountains are greener and sea of clouds are easier to see during rainy season. thailand has a lot of great national parks. this is also my favourite time to travel around the country

Great video topic! ☔

I live in Cambodia, rain for a week now. 24 hours a day. Next month Thailand. Hopefully a bit better when I am doing my shopping in BKK.

We had a nice time on Koh Mak.Very quiet little place and we had beautiful weather 🙂

I'm surprised you didn't mention air quality. I heard it's better especially in northern Thailand during rainy season. Next time we go I'd like to try rainy season. So far we've gone in October of 2018 and February of 2024. I liked October better. February was very hot!! Both times it rained once during the 3 weeks we were there.

I really liked living in TH in the rainy season. October always felt the worst month for storms from where we lived in BKK. I would leave work at 6pm and guaranteed storm would strike! I bought a really strong, big umbrella! Ko Samed seems to miss most of the rain and only occasionally rained there during rainy season in the 20 odd times we've been there.

I love rainy season! I prefer it.

Great video editing, great content🎉🙏

Love these guys....❤ Keep going man, almost finished🙏🇹🇭

Paddy,you always make good videos mate. Thank you.

I’ve been to Thailand 3 times during rainy season now and I’ve enjoyed it. Hoping to make it a 4th time next month. Last time I was there 2 years ago was in July and in Samui we rented a motorbike only to have a rain storm hit right as we got it. Decided to return it and switched to a car which was a much better experience. Also during rainy season people get sick there a lot. Just be prepared that you might get sick for a day or two.

Great video! Koh Mak is high on the list next time in Thailand. Major tourist sites & amusement parks I target on rainy days anywhere in the world. Best time to go.

We all love the rainy season after the terrible heat, but after 2 months we all are waiting for the sun. And I have been doing that for 20 years.

Living in Samui -rainy season great. Less people. Cooler. Love it.

I'm more prone to Costa Rica, and many years they marketed rainy season as "Green Season," and the result of rain makes the flora and fauna more exuberant. Flooding is an issue in some areas due to lack of administration. Florida where I live is tropical. It's currently a beautiful hot morning and we expect rain this afternoon for a brief moment. No big deal.

Awesome video Paddy! Thanks for sharing 😊

Always gone to Thailand in the so called rainy season and i love the 🌞and never failed getting a Tan in 15 years .Me looking like i just stepped out of the shower at reception after a crazy Motorbike taxi ride ,The staff didn't bat an eyelid .Love Thai people and Thailand ❤

I enjoy coming over to Thailand during the rainy season ( low season) less people around and the pollution is a lot less specially in Bangkok. As always Paddy enjoing your content no matter rail , hail or shine .

May 16th to June 16th last year I was in Pattaya for 12 nights, then flew to The Philippines for 10 nights, then back to Pattaya for 8 nights and in Thailand it rain almost daily about 5-6am for about 40 mins and occasionally in the afternoon/evening. However it didn't rain once in The Philippines, as their wet season is about 3-4 weeks behind Thailand's.

Great video once again! And what a coincidence that I was driving that exact green motorbike last November 😅

Koh Mak is the sand flies homeland 😅 but still such a beauty.Can't wait for the Kood video,my home away from home ❤ Enjoy Paddyyyyy

koh mak still looks stunning ✨

Great approach to the rainy season!

Will be there on 20th❤❤❤

Some Great information Thank You Paddy Doyle 🙂❤👍and Awesome Adventure 🙂

Thanks for the update on the Pearl. A better deal now for sure as before it was 400 or 500 baht to enter the resort. Money we'll spent as they have had to rebuild the pier after a major storm during covid wiped it away mostly. There used to be really cool rooms along the waterfront but they have been removed now. Oh and there's a cheeky (literally) erotica garden near the main pier worth a look 😂

Good video paddy I am currently been in Singapore since the start of the year for work. I still have family and property in thailand and to be fair I miss every season in thailand.

Thanks for sharing that 🎉

living here the Rainy season is my favourite,,,, the rains wash away all the crud and stink away in the streets of any city.... and its not so damn hot Note: love your red rain jacket: The Darth Face /// did you get that in BKK?

I love the rain, but i dont like getting soaked in the rain. Now if i just ensure i always carry an umbrella. Thats fine!

I love rainy season too

We went in July last year and the weather was mostly very nice, sunny and hot, yes it rained but out of 14 days we had 1 or 2 heavy downpours which cleared to blue sky, going again this year at the same time!
