(December to February)
The cool season sees the highest number of visitors arriving for a holiday in Bangkok owing to the more comfortable weather. Temperatures during this season average about 26°C/80°F.
Numerous outdoor beer and restaurant gardens pop up throughout the city during this time, giving everyone a chance to enjoy the breezy evenings that the cooler weather in Bangkok brings.
The temperature variation in Bangkok isn’t as marked as other more northern parts of Thailand and for those unused to tropical weather; even a midday cool season temperature may appear sweltering. It does get cooler at night, but this season is blessed with wonderful blue, cloudless skies for several months and lower humidity. Only a light jacket is needed in the evening.
