All Months
November through March gives you Pattaya at its best. Temperatures hover around 27-30°C with minimal rain and lower humidity. December and January are peak season — book accommodation early and expect higher prices.
April brings Songkran (Thai New Year) and the city goes absolutely wild. Water fights consume the streets for three days straight. It's chaotic fun but not ideal for beach relaxation. Hotels jack up rates during this period.
May through October is rainy season, but don't let that scare you. Rain typically comes in afternoon bursts, leaving mornings and evenings clear. You'll find better hotel deals and fewer crowds. Just pack a light rain jacket.
Avoid Chinese New Year (January/February) if you prefer quieter beaches. Chinese tour groups flood the city, and popular restaurants often have long waits.
