We've looked at the most up-to-date weather data for Thailand, covering the last 12 years up to 2026, plus we've asked our team of travel bloggers for their first-hand experiences in order to answer the most frequently asked questions about Thailand weather in November.

How hot is it in Thailand during November?

November is typically the coolest month in Thailand, although we use the term cool in a relative sense! Expect heat, with the temperature hitting about 31℃ during the day, falling away to a balmy 23℃ at night. Of course, the high humidity will make it feel even hotter. The UV index will be high at this time of year, so protection against skin and eye damage is needed. Try to limit exposure between 10am and 4pm. Apply broad spectrum SPF 30+ sunscreen every few hours, even if it's cloudy, or more frequently after sweating or swimming, and wear UV-blocking sunglasses too, and bear in mind that bright surfaces, such as sand and water increase UV exposure.

Does it rain in Thailand during November?

On average, there will be 4 rainy days during the month, amounting to 91.5mm in total. That's a significant amount of rain. For comparison, the wettest months in the UK typically sees between 80mm and 100mm, depending on where you are. Due to the high temperature and humidity, you might expect lots of thunderstorms, however they're actually fairly infrequent at this time of year. On average, November will see just 2 days that produce a storm.

Is it windy in Thailand during November?

You're unlikely to experience any strong winds. Expect a light breeze that picks up slightly at times in November. The high humidity and warm temperature will make the breeze feel warm, so any cooling effect will be limted.

How warm is the sea in Thailand during November?

The water around Thailand reaches a very pleasant 29℃ during November. This is very warm, and will feel bath-like. People who normally feel the cold will find this temperature perfectly acceptable. The hot air temperature and relatively high humidity will mean that you will feel comfortably warm when coming out of the water.
