What is on in Phuket in 11월
Source-market holiday
Diwali (인도)
2026년 11월 6일~10일 · approximate · 인도
Adds a demand wave to the first fortnight of the high season, on top of rates that are already rising. Direct flights from Delhi, Mumbai and Bengaluru sell out first; villas that sleep eight or more are the tightest inventory on the island that week.
Source-market holiday
Malaysian year-end school holidays
2027년 11월 20일~12월 31일 · approximate · 말레이시아
Steady short-stay demand through the ramp into the peak fortnight, concentrated on weekends. It is one of the reasons December rates rise before the European and Russian holiday traffic actually arrives.
Festival
Loy Krathong
2026년 11월 24일 · approximate
A one-night event that fills beachfront restaurants and the 푸켓타운 parks; it does not move hotel rates. It falls inside the early high season, when the sea is already calm — the practical reason Phuket keeps it on the beach rather than on a river.
Sport
Phuket King's Cup Regatta
2026년 11월 28일~12월 6일 · approximate · 까따
까따 and 까론 beachfront hotels run near capacity for the regatta week and the marinas at Ao Po and Boat Lagoon fill with visiting boats. Everywhere else on the island the effect is invisible; the rate pressure comes from the season, not the racing.
Source-market holiday
European autumn half-terms
2027년 10월 16일~11월 1일 · approximate
The first real demand of the season, still at low-season prices in most of the island. Villas and hotels that publish a mid-October rate change are the exception; book before the switch and the same room costs meaningfully less than in the first week of November.
Seasonal windows covering 11월
Dry season (north-east monsoon)
2026년 11월 1일~2027년 3월 31일
The reason the price index has two levels: hotel and villa rates through these five months sit well above the May-to-October ones, and the Christmas fortnight sits above the rest of the dry season again. Book villas for December and January six to nine months ahead.
Similan and 수린 islands season
2026년 10월 15일~2027년 5월 15일
The single hardest constraint on a Phuket itinerary: a trip planned between 16 May and 14 October cannot include the Similans at all. Inside the window, December to February sells out first and April is the quietest month with good sea.

Crowds and prices in 11월
A median 11월 brings 1,131,861 hotel guest arrivals in Phuket with occupancy around 78.6%, which makes it the 2nd busiest month of the twelve in the Ministry of Tourism and Sports series. Occupancy at this level is what pushes hotel and villa rate cards to their high-season level, and it is why the island’s best inventory is committed months ahead.
11월 sits inside the high season: rate cards are at their upper level and the best hotels and villas are committed months ahead.

November is the month everything changes. The north-east monsoon establishes itself, the west-coast swell disappears, the rain drops sharply from the October figure and the beaches that were red-flagged in September are swimmable again. Every island trip runs; the Similan boats are into their season.
It is also the month with the steepest price gradient of the year. The first week is often still on low-season or shoulder rates; by the last week the high-season card is fully in force and December is being sold. Long-stay villas are chosen in early November for exactly this reason — arrive then and you get the best of the inventory before the winter residents commit it.
The events are front-loaded and back-loaded: Diwali brings the first Indian wave in the first fortnight, Loy Krathong floats out on the November full moon, and the King's Cup Regatta fills 까따 at the very end of the month as the Andaman sailing season opens.
Who 11월 suits
- Anyone who wants dry-season weather without December prices — especially the first two weeks.
- Long-stay visitors choosing a villa for the winter.
- Sailors and anyone drawn to a regatta.
Who should pick another month
Travellers who book late: November prices move upward every week, and the good villas go first.
