Заезды на Пхукет по месяцам и странам

The figures are guest arrivals at accommodation establishments in Phuket province — check-ins at hotels, resorts, guesthouses and other registered accommodation — as published by Thailand’s Ministry of Tourism and Sports, by nationality and by month. They are not airport arrivals and not visitor counts: a traveller who changes hotel is counted twice, a traveller in a private villa is not counted at all. The nationality is the one recorded at check-in; “Korea”, “USA” and the regional rows (“Middle East”, “East Europe”) are the ministry’s own labels. The tables show the ten largest foreign markets of each year — the set changes slightly from year to year — and the last column is the total for all foreign nationalities, 10 085 407 in 2025.

Россия is the largest foreign market in 2025 with 1 748 249 check-ins (+92.3% vs 2019) and a winter-leaning market: 49.4% of Russian arrivals fall in November–March, against 21.2% in June–August. The peak month was январь (185 626), the low октябрь (110 589), a 1.7× swing. The pattern was the same before 2020 — the pre-COVID peak month was январь at 16.5% of the year — but the base is now roughly twice as large, and Phuket’s highest monthly occupancy of 2025 was in январь (86.4%); the same calendar drives the high-season prices in the index.

Китай sent 1 285 894 check-ins in 2025 (−58.8% vs 2019, when it was the largest market). Its calendar follows Chinese holidays rather than Phuket’s dry season: the 2025 peak was июль (150 214), the low июнь (59 543); June–August carried 27.7% of the year and November–March 43.7%. Before the pandemic the strongest month averaged 11.3% of the year in январь; over 2023–2025 it is декабрь at 10.8%. Month to month the Chinese series is the most volatile of the six (coefficient of variation 28.8% across the twelve months of 2025) — visa rules, flight capacity and news cycles move it within a single quarter, which is visible in the 2025 table.

Индия is the third market with 1 029 588 check-ins in 2025, +356.5% vs 2019 — the fastest-growing of the six since then. Its seasonality is strongly seasonal (4.2× between декабрь, 116 972, and август, 28 135): the Indian school holidays in May–June carried 18.3% of the year, October — the Diwali and Dussehra window — 8.5%, and November–March 47.8%. Indian demand is what fills Phuket in months that used to be the low season, and it is a large part of why the island’s seasonality curve has flattened since 2019.

The Великобритания (762 815 check-ins in 2025, +125.9% vs 2019) peaked in ноябрь (91 169) with the low in март (39 587); November–March took 41.8% and the British summer holidays, June–August, 25.3% — a moderately seasonal profile with two shoulders rather than one winter peak.

If you want the island at its quietest, the tables point to июнь; if you want to avoid a specific crowd, look at that market’s low month rather than the island total — the Russian low (октябрь) and the Chinese low (июнь) do not coincide. Prices follow the same calendar with a lag: the Phuket Travel Price Index records hotel and villa medians on the 1st and 15th of every month, so the seasonality here can be read against the price series.
