Times to travel

Is October a good time to travel around south Thailand? islands (Ko phi phi, Krabi, and surroundings) ? Appreciate the advice : )

Anytime is a good time to travel. Surely beats working. October is fine, go.

October is great - if it's the weather you're worried about, well, don't worry too much. Both east and west coasts will be in transition meaning you might get a bit of rain in the evenings but can expect more sun than rain, mostly clear sunny days.

Depends on what you're looking for? Phi phi has beautiful surroundings but is very crowded and developed. Krabi is stunning but you're not on an island, so you get a different feeling.

My favorite Thai island of them all is Koh Lipe, hands down. Beautiful, chilled out little island in the far south.

Hi mayrus
In October maybe not too good but it's okay ( it's rainy but just a bit ) you can enjoy this trip on island and on land.
In Krabi I recommend to go to Ao Nang,Hat Noppharat Thara, and Sa Kaeo.
however the best time for visit Koh Phi Phi will be in November and April because the rains are less frequent. (just let you know ,maybe you plan to visit there next time)
