Hotels in Khao Lak, Thailand
Khao Lak is a coastal region on Thailand's Andaman Sea, famous for its pristine beaches and proximity to the Similan Islands, a top dive spot with crystal-clear water. The climate is tropical, with dry season from November to April (77-91°F / 25-33°C) perfect for snorkeling at Koh Tachai or hiking in Khao Sok National Park's rainforest, and rainy season from May to October (75-86°F / 24-30°C) offering cheaper stays and fewer crowds for exploring the Bang Niang Market or visiting the Tsunami Memorial. In the dry months, you can take liveaboard trips to Richelieu Rock for whale sharks, while the wet season brings lush waterfalls and calmer, more local beach vibes at Khuk Khak.
