Is February a good time to visit Phuket?
February is still the high season in Phuket, and the conditions are perfect. The sky is blue, the sea is calm and clear, and the temperature is still comfortable. On the other hand, the most popular beaches can get very busy (Patong, Kata, Nai Harn), so going north to discover the quietest beaches of Phuket is a good idea. As usual, each year is a little different, and unexpected rains are possible, especially at night. Read more about Phuket weather
