Koh Samui, Thailand weekly weather update; 22nd April 2019 – 28th April 2019

It' Sunday morning and the Koh Samui, Thailand weekly weather update; 22nd April 2019 – 28th April 2019 is due. My long Sunday morning run is in the bag, on Koh Lanta and later this morning I will hit the road to go back to Koh Samui.

Talking about Koh Samui! It's partially cloudy this morning with a current temperature of 29C and rising at 8am. The heat onslaught continues.

On Koh Lanta the temperature dropped at last after two weeks of hot to hotter temperatures. It rained once, when I arrived two weeks ago on Sunday evening. And it started to rain last night and this morning. My morning run was completely in the run and it was lovely. Cool again, at last. Current temperature at 8am is 25C

Last week it was still very hot around Koh Samui with no relief. Maximum temperatures reached 34C but it felt a lot warmer, well within the mid forties range. Minimum ranged dropped only to 29C at night. It was steaming hot, but not as hot as in Central and Northern Thailand.

Believe it or not, but this is Koh Lanta. Towards the Southern part of the island is this brand new 4 to 6 lane highway lookalike. Construction at other parts of the island is going on for a similar new road. Considering that during my first ever trip to Thailand, way back in the mid nineties, I stayed at Kaw Kwang beach and it took me a 15 minute walk to get to Ban Saladan. I don't remember any main road at all. The times they are a changing.

The forecast for next week shows a bit of relief. It should be mostly partially cloudy skies. Not much rain however. except maybe for Monday morning. The intense heat is slowly letting off though.

Enjoy your stay on Koh Samui and don't forget to book some of the option mentioned below!

Please do 'like' my Koh Samui blog Facebook page and enjoy the beaches around the island or in front of your hotel or resort and get some well deserved rest and a break. 

If you're done resting or need something else to do, there's plenty of things on offer on and around Koh Samui, you can go snorkeling or diving or take a dive course. 

You can also enjoy some of the trips I recommend, like a half day gourmet lunch and snorkeling trip at the Southern part of Koh Samui or a photography trip where you get to see the most photo genetic spots on the island or go for a drinks tasting tour if you like a tipple or two. 

You may also opt for a very special dinner experience at The Thai Experience. Behind closed doors, reservation only and a very enjoyable and well worthwhile way of spending an evening on Samui. Authentic Thai food and a great atmosphere. Can highly recommend this experience. 

Contact me for more detailed information on any of the options mentioned.
