Climate
Koh Lanta has it’s high season, the period when we have the best weather and when diving is always possible: mid October until mid of May. Outside of these months, diving is sometimes possible. In the months June and September the waves are too high for diving though. Koh Lanta’s monsoon is from mid May till mid October. It generally does not rain the whole day in this period and the island is nice and quiet. If you are planning to come between the 20th of December and the 5th of January to Koh Lanta, please do reserve before you get here, this is Lanta’s Peak Season and the island is then often fully booked. The water temperature around the island is between 28 and 32 degrees Celsius. Manta’s and whale sharks are mostly seen between November and the start of March in the Andaman Sea.
Nightlife
Koh Lanta is a fairly quiet island. There are some nice small cocktail bars on the beach, where you can watch the beautiful sunset. Some bars offer a party night or have a live band (mostly in high season). Travelers go to Lanta for a nice, relaxed, layed back time. It is not a party island.
