March 2027 opens hot season on land—and puts both Thai coasts in a clear, calm marine window. Skip the smoky north, lean into islands, and book Similan boats early before Songkran.
April is Thailand’s hottest month—and its biggest festival. Songkran turns cities into water, both coasts stay clear, and Similan is still open before mid-May.
Songkran is not a normal peak season. It is hot, wet, pricier—and genuinely fun if that is what you came for. Decide first whether mid-April is right for you. Then choose Bangkok, Chiang Mai, or the islands, and know the etiquette and what your quote includes.
We’ll mark the coast and return a private outline — usually within 24 hours.
