Pattaya in August

Mid rainy season. There are many wet days, so beach time has to be picked day by day. On a clear day, a boat trip to spend the day on Koh Larn fits well.

Highs averaged 32°C and lows stayed at 26°C, so the heat hung on long after sunset. Showers came now and then, about 9 rain days in all, and most of the month stayed dry. Year to year it swung widely, from 1 rain day in 2012 to 14 in 2010.

With 28 days above 30°C on average, most of the month felt like high summer.
