Phuket in October 2025 – is it worth going? Weather and reviews, air and water temperature, beaches without waves, prices for flights, hotels and excursions. What to do on Phuket in early October and closer to November, what to see where to go and go with the children, I found out Eurotraveler.
The later the autumn becomes, the fewer the desire to relax outside the native region is found by potential travelers. This trend is most clearly manifested in domestic expanses-very few go somewhere in Russia in October.
But foreign tourism experiences not such a tangible decline in demand. Since, for example, Türkiye in mid -autumn is not only good, but also frankly chic in a weather sense. Yes, and Dubai in mid -October is no longer so frying. Equally, by the way, like Egypt.
Only Southeast Asia during this period of the year still Frankly non -isonous – First of all, in the beach sense. Although the same Phuket in October begins to look a little more attractive in comparison with August and September.
And at the end of the month, on the threshold of the November holidays, it appears underestimated. And therefore, in fact wonderful from the point of view of the seaside rest, the direction.

Weather on Phuket in October
It usually has a rainy character. There is no year for a year, but in most reviews October on Phuket is considered not particularly suitable time for a serene vacation. Since rains can be poured for hours on other days.
However, not around the clock – almost certainly there will be an opportunity, if not for bathing, then for a promenade along the seashore. Or, for example, excursions to the elephant nursery and to the snake farm, trips to Phuket-Town and to the Church of Wat Chalong …
After that, of course, how the water will subside. Indeed, during especially strong rainfall, local roads turn into a kind of Venetian canals.
The beginning of October on Phuket is usually much more generously on precipitation. But at the end of the month, tourists have the right to count on Clear weather. And also on the fact that rare, although stormy, rains will not stop them from sunbathing and swimming on the best beaches of Phuket.
The air temperature in the middle of autumn on the island lives in a completely acceptable range: during the day it will not be higher than +31-32 ° C, and at night-not lower than +25-26 ° C. But humidity (stably above 90%) leaves no room for doubts – if you are not able tolerate stuffinessthen you better not rest on Phuket in October.
Be very little – already at the end of November, it will go in a way!
The average rainfall in October on Phuket reaches 250 mm. And the number of at least partially inconspicuous days fluctuates within 16-18. True, as elsewhere, exceptions are possible – the author of this review found only 2 inconspicuous days on vacation (out of 14!).
Winds on the island in mid -autumn Little will subside. So stopping even on the western beaches: Katya and Karon you will receive not 1 or 2 opportunities to swim in open water.
Sea
As for the temperature of the water, it, in our subjective opinion, is much more with bathing than in the summer or in September. Since the Andaman Sea in October on the coast is only warmed up to +28-29 ° C. And, therefore, in general, copes with its main functions: Cool and refresh.
At the same time, of course, we must not forget about the “correct” time for bathing – especially if you are relaxing with children. In numerous reviews, it is reported that it is best to do this in the morning, hours until 11. and evenings – after 17.
We advocate for an even more cautious approach-there is nothing better than in October to swim in Phuket for hours at 8-9 in the morning. And in the evening, getting out on the beach is already closer to sunset, that is, at about 18 o’clock.
And yes – do not forget to regularly update the sunscreen from the cream on the skin. Since the tropical sun even in the deep autumn Easy to burn Pale -faced northerners in a matter of minutes.
Where is it better to swim? Of course, it is worth focusing on those beaches of Phuket, where the waves even in October do not act too much on the nerves.
That is, on Nai Harn, for example. Which, in addition, can serve as almost an ideal point for meeting The most romantic sunsets in the world.
Those who are less enthusiastic and more practical are aimed at the Pavan peninsula on the east coast of Phuket and the John Jon beach.

Discover an inclination to a slight growth compared to September. Since it begins to reach interested parties – the beginning of a real high season is not far off.
However, all this applies only at the end of October at Phuket. When the rains are already accurately declining, and the probability of cloudless day rises to 50%. At the beginning of the month, the pricens are for hotels, that there are still nand minimal levels.
In particular, in less than 200 € a week, a couple of travelers will be able to book a room in the popular hotel in the NUI NUI Resort – Sha Extra Plus. The disposable pool, whose characteristics can make you forget about the desirability of traveling to the beach. Which is Nay Harn, by the way, is located near the designated hotel.
It is located on the east coast and also has a large pool The Title Boutique Phuket. Where for not fundamentally big money (if there is a seasonal discount) you can stop in separate apartments with your own kitchen. Next to him there are a lot of cafes and shops, you can get to the beach of Yanui on foot.
The latter, due to high waves, can hardly be recognized as the best on Phuket in October. But the surfers will find it very good. And lovers of snorkeling will find a lot of interesting things in coastal waters – if the weather allows them to swim with a mask.
Hires, excursions, flights
If you rent a bike (from 250 baht per day) or a car (from 750-800), then significantly expand your capabilities in terms of choosing the most suitable beach. Along the way, getting an absolutely necessary tool for inspecting interesting places of Phuket.

The main attractions of the island, of course, can be seen along with organized excursions. The cost of which in non-season percent is 20-25% lower than standard price list.
Flights there and back from Moscow to Phuket will cost in October 50-55 thousand rubles per 1 person and its baggage (from 20 kg). At the same time, on the way in one side it is necessary to spend from 14-15 hours (transit through Tashkent or, for example, Sharju).
What to do
At least in early October – at the end of the month the weather improves – you should develop in addition to the main alternative plan. Allowing you not to acidify in the case of a sudden tropical rain or storm condition on the coast.
One way or another, but in the list of “binding” places on Phuket, it is definitely worth turning on the Fantasea entertainment park, which is praised literally in every review. Regardless, by the way, on whether you liked the whole rest on Thai Island or not.
Fans more piquant, or just noisy, entertainment It is worth visiting Patong. And citizens who collected ethnographic features can not do without a trip to Phuket Town. Definitely not the cleanest place on the planet, but overwhelmed with local color.
Excellent reviews were earned by the Park “World of Hanuman”, which provides A great opportunity Climbing adrenaline in the most exotic decorations. A lot of emotions is not always, however, a positive property, and a visit to Mount of Monkeys will cause.
Reserve a day or two and on excursions outside the Phuket. Indeed, in mid -October, the Similan Islands again open for tourists. As for the PHI-PHI archipelago, at this time of the year you have a truly unique opportunity to soak up on the amazing beaches there without fear of being crushed by the next large group of tourists.
