Best Time to Visit Krabi – Weather, Seasons & Festivals

I’ve visited Krabi in every season — from cloudless December skies to August afternoons when the rain hits hard. Here’s what you should know about the weather and timing your trip.

Dry Season (Nov–Mar)

Blue skies, calm seas, and perfect beach weather. The best time for island-hopping, though prices are highest.

Shoulder Season (Apr–Jun)

Hot and humid, but fewer crowds. Songkran in April adds a splash of fun to the heat.

Rainy Season (Jul–Oct)

Expect short tropical downpours, usually in the afternoon. Lush landscapes, lower hotel prices, and fewer tourists.

Festivals

April’s Songkran Water Festival and November’s Loy Krathong lantern festival bring color and tradition to Krabi.

Travel Tip: Even in rainy season, mornings are often sunny — don’t write off visiting Krabi outside peak months.
