Touristes de Australie à Phuket : arrivées par année et par mois

Australie accounted for 628 551 guest arrivals at Phuket accommodation establishments in 2025 — 6.2% of all foreign check-ins (10 085 407) and rank #5 among the 38 foreign rows (including the residual “Others”) the Ministry of Tourism and Sports publishes for the province. Against 2024 (624 814) that is +0.6%; against 2019, the last pre-pandemic year (482 320), it is +30.3%.

Over the whole series the market went from 576 496 in 2013 to 628 551 in 2025 (+9.0%). The best year on record is 2025 with 628 551 check-ins — the current year. The pandemic low was 2021 at 2 939. Australia’s share of foreign arrivals moved from 5.0% in 2019 to 6.2% in 2025, so the market grew faster than Phuket as a whole.

Seasonality: in 2025 the peak month was janvier (65 241) and the quietest septembre (46 235). Averaged over 2023–2025, arrivals are spread almost evenly across the year (1.3× between décembre and mai): November–March carries 43.4% of the year and June–August 24.0%, which makes Australie a year-round market for Phuket. Before the pandemic (2013–2019) the strongest month averaged 10.3% of the year, in février.

Definitions: a guest arrival is a check-in at a registered hotel, resort, guesthouse or serviced apartment in Phuket province, counted by the nationality given at check-in. It is not an airport arrival and not a count of people: someone who stays in two hotels is counted twice, someone in a private villa is not counted. The nationality series runs 2013–2025; the 2026 split will appear with the ministry’s 2026 annual file, expected mid-2027.
