Located on 8th north parallel, where monsoon winds blow from the West (June to September), then suddenly reverse to the East (October till May), Koh Yao Noi benefits a typical wet tropical climate, as described by geographers: Constant temperatures (Max. 30 Cº to 33 Cº; Min. 20 Cº to 23 Cº, a rainy season (West winds) and a dry season (East winds) with short intermediate seasons.
The effects of rains and winds are considerably reduced here by the presence of the Island of Phuket and the Malay Peninsula that protect the island on both sides, reducing rain falls and wind strength, and maintaining calm waters in the entire bay all year round - swimming and excursions can be enjoyed almost all the time. As a matter of fact, the climate here is simply ideal...
Koh Yao Noi and Phuket area are situated out of the typhoon area.
