Beach & Islands

Andaman vs Gulf, monsoon timing, and which island matches the trip you actually want.

Two seas

Andaman (Phuket, Krabi, Phi Phi, Lanta, Similan) is dramatic limestone and a May–October monsoon. The Gulf (Samui, Phangan, Tao, and the east coast) has a different rain pattern. You can often flip coasts if one side is wet.

Pick a mood

Family beaches, diving islands, party piers, and almost-empty sand exist an hour apart. Ferries change with weather. For a first trip, one hub plus day boats beats island-hopping every night.

Notes to expand

  • Andaman peak: roughly November–April
  • Gulf peak: roughly January–April, plus mid-year windows
  • National park islands: extra tickets and boat rules
  • Reef-safe habits: no standing on coral, careful sunscreen
