Weather in Phuket in December

Weather in Phuket in December

December in Phuket is a real peak of the tourist season, when the island attracts many travelers from all over the world. If you are planning your vacation for this month, it will be useful for you to know what kind of weather awaits you, as well as what features and possible disadvantages of a winter vacation are worth familiarizing yourself with.

Benefits of Vacationing in December

The weather in December in Phuket becomes consistently pleasant, which makes this period one of the most comfortable for a beach holiday. At this time of year, the tropical monsoons have already retreated, and the island greets guests with mostly sunny days. During the day, the air temperature often rises above 30 degrees Celsius, which is ideal for those who want to spend their holiday under the bright sun.

In December, the sea water warms up to a comfortable 26-27 degrees. This allows you to enjoy swimming and various water sports. The large waves typical of the low season disappear, and the sea becomes calm and welcoming, opening access to many beaches, where you can choose both lively areas with developed infrastructure and more secluded corners for a relaxing holiday.

For those who enjoy active recreation and excursions, December also offers many opportunities. The weather is favorable for walks along the picturesque islands, trips to national parks and exploration of the cultural attractions of Phuket and its surroundings. Each day you can plan a variety of activities without fear of sudden showers or strong winds.

Disadvantages of Vacationing in December

However, despite all the advantages, a holiday in Phuket in December has its disadvantages. During this period, prices on the island increase significantly, both for accommodation and food. Fruits that ripen in Phuket in the summer become less available by December, and their cost can be an unpleasant surprise.

As for accommodation, it is worth booking apartments or villas well in advance of the trip. The end of December is not just a high season, but a peak season, when demand for accommodation and car rentals increases sharply. This also applies to excursions : the most popular routes, such as trips to the Similan Islands or a visit to Phang Nga Bay, can be booked several days before the excursion date, so you need to plan them in advance.

Beaches become more crowded in December, which is not always a good thing for those looking for privacy. It is becoming increasingly difficult to find a quiet and deserted place to relax, especially on popular beaches such as Patong, Karon or Kata. If your goal is to avoid the crowds, then it is worth considering lesser-known beaches or going to small bays hidden from the eyes of most tourists.

For those with sensitive skin, December in Phuket can be a real challenge. The sun is at its strongest during this period, and even on cloudy days the risk of getting sunburn remains high. Be sure to use high sun protection factor (SPF), wear hats and light protective clothing to keep your skin healthy and avoid unpleasant consequences of relaxing under the tropical sun.

Available excursions in December

In December 2024, travelers to Phuket will have a wide range of both sea and land excursions available. The only exception is Koh Tachai, which remains closed to visitors in order to restore its unique ecosystem. Beach holidays on Maiton Island are also unavailable this year. Despite this, most popular excursion destinations remain open, and you can go on an unforgettable trip every day. Entertainment on the island itself and evening shows are also held as usual. To avoid large crowds at the most popular tourist attractions, choose excursions with early departure (check with the manager about their availability).

Thus, a holiday in December in Phuket is a great opportunity to escape from the cold and grayness of winter, immersing yourself in the atmosphere of a tropical paradise. Despite the high season and its features, the island provides many options for active recreation, enjoying the natural beauty and cultural treasures of Thailand. Prepare in advance to get the most out of your trip, and allow yourself to relax in one of the most picturesque resorts in the world.
