About this month
Low season (nationwide generalization)
Rainy season is ending in most regions, but the Gulf islands (Koh Samui, Koh Phangan, Koh Tao) usually see their heaviest rain from October through December — the opposite pattern to the Andaman coast.
Ok Phansa, the end of Buddhist Lent, usually falls in October and carries a nationwide ban on alcohol sales for the whole day. Exact dates are set by the Thai Cabinet each year, so check the current year's holiday list before you travel.
