What's the weather like in Phuket?
Phuket enjoys a tropical climate all year. Expect temperatures above 30°C, especially between December and February.
Rainfall is low during this period too. The city experiences a rainy season around September and October. However, its position in the Andaman Sea means it mostly avoids the typhoons and tropical storms affecting its neighbours.
How do I get from Phuket Airport to Phuket City?
Phuket City is 20 miles (32 kilometres) south of Phuket International Airport (HKT). There are numerous ways to reach the centre of Phuket.
Catch one of their airport taxis which operate 24/7. You can also hop on board the airport bus, which takes around one and a half hours to reach the city.
Top tips for Frankfurt to Phuket
Go island hopping
While Frankfurt may be known for its bustling business centre and striking architecture, holidays in Phuket are all about lounging on the beach, scuba diving and jet skiing.
If you want a change of scene, consider island hopping to Koh Phi Phi, a cluster of six small islands. While there, you can visit Khao Phing Kan. Used as a location in the 1974 film The Man with the Golden Gun, it’s also known as James Bond Island.
Visit the Great Buddha
Perched atop Nakkard Hill near Chalong is the famous Phuket Big Buddha, an enormous statue of a seated buddha. Just like Frankfurt’s famed Fountain of Justice, the 150 foot tall statue is one of the island’s most revered landmarks.
Climb to the top of the hill to enjoy sweeping views across the island, ideal for that perfect Phuket photograph.
