Pattaya weather by month
2006-2025, 20 years of records · Not a forecast
Pattaya sits on the same gulf as Bangkok but gets less rain in the wet months. The dry season runs from about November to April and the rainy season from May to early November, with the most rain in September and October. December is the driest month.
In the rainy months, jellyfish warnings are sometimes posted, though incidents in Pattaya are said to be rare. If the beach disappoints, a boat trip to nearby Koh Larn is an easy addition.
December to February gave the best mix of comfortable warmth and few rain days in Pattaya. To dodge the rain, December and January (2 rain days) was the stretch to look at, not September and October (14).
