Phi Phi in February
February is statistically the driest month on the Andaman coast. If you want guaranteed sunshine and flat, clear water, this is it.

What the weather is like
Rainfall averages only around 24 mm for the whole month, often on just one or two days. Days are hot, around 34 °C, and the sea is at its calmest. Underwater visibility at sites like Bida Nok and the Phi Phi Leh walls is typically excellent.
Crowds and prices
Busy, especially around Chinese New Year if it falls in February and around Valentine's Day. Prices are high but usually a little lower than over New Year.
Tips for February
- Ideal month for a dive course or a full day of snorkelling.
- Sunrise hikes to the Viewpoint are clear and spectacular.
- Bring strong sunscreen: there is little cloud cover.
