Is over-tourism wrecking Thailand?
How do you feel about going on holiday where the are so many tourists it is crazy?
This is the reality of 2025 Thailand, depending on the time of the year you visit.
This photo is from yesterday at Kata Beach in Phuket.
Crazy amount of tourists, although Songkran in April contributes to the massive amounts of tourists this time of year. (April is the hottest month of the year in Thailand).
The high season also brings in ridiculous crowds of tourists.
Over-tourism may not be the kind of Thailand experience you were dreaming of.
Higher prices, long lines, traffic jams and plenty of noise.
If this is not the experience you are looking for, plan on taking a holiday in the low season.
Rain may be a minor inconvenience compared to all the problems when there are simply too many tourist.
Do your research and planning for the time of the year that will best suit YOU!
