    When to go

    Posted by deathfaerie 2 December 2005

    Low season is from May to October (this is the monsoon season). High season is from November to April.Regardless of season the temperature is about 30-33 degrees centigrade. The difference is that it rains frequently in the low season, and hardly ever in the high season. Don’t write off the low season just yet though. It has its upside: 1. This is the time to surf on Phuket.2. The sun is mostly behind clouds3. There is a refreshing downpour several times a day 4. Accommodation is half the price it is in high season. Strange but true. Rooms costing about 1,000-1,500 baht in high season can be had for half this amount in low season.

    Not going there in midsummer

    Posted by Sharkey 13 September 2005

    Midsummer is the time that everyone clears out of the cities. I made the mistake of going to Gothenberg at this time and the place was like a morgue. Even 7-11's were closed. Had to resort to the Hard Rock Cafe...good God!
