When Is the Rainy Season in Koh Samui?
Koh Samui’s rainy season typically runs from October to mid-December. While rainfall is more frequent during this period, it usually comes in short, intense bursts rather than all-day downpours. This makes it entirely possible to enjoy the island — with the right planning.
