Koh Samui November?

[paddy82]

Hi everyone

Im considering going to Koh Samui for 2 weeks alone during november. I was over in April and loved the place. Becuase im going solo, was just wondering how busy it is during this time? Are most of the bars/resturants/clubs open even if its low season? And are their many other travellers around my age (26) there at this time?

Thanks for the help

November is the rainy season. It can rain for days on end.

Very old numbers, and december can be worse, like last one.....

Well i hope to find a bar for breakfast, december flights are expensive so this year i'll arrive early in november.

At least it rains like in europe but with 20 degree more

BTW how was the summer season, forum very quiet....

Can be very nice.

Everybody very friendly, making the best of the situation.

Not many tourists on the beach but many in the bars.

You can have a lot of fun.

November 2005 was very bad.

November 2006 just grey skies.

November 2007 bad.

November 2008 not so bad.

Thanks all for the advice.

Should make up my mind soon enough, tho might have to wait till after wet season

Sounds like you are more interested in indoor activities, OP. November is when the flooding happens. The amount of rainfall at times can be awesome. But the bargirls are drip dry back in your room

According to locals, Lamai never floods and when i go to a bar I usually ask for a cappuccino before realizing it is full of girls too joung not even able to make one

Hope we don't get a repeat of 2005.

This was the road past my house at that time.
