Understanding Koh Samui’s Rainy Season
Koh Samui’s rainy season typically runs from late October to mid-December, with November being the wettest month. Unlike monsoons elsewhere in Thailand, the rain here often comes in short, intense bursts followed by sunshine — making it possible to enjoy the beach even during wetter months.
At 79 Beach Club & Resort, our beachfront location in Bangrak means you can watch dramatic tropical storms roll in over the sea, then step back into the sunshine for an afternoon swim.

- Temperature: Warm year-round, averaging 27–30 °C
