A tiny island in the Trang archipelago, Koh Kradan was named Thailand's best beach by the Tourism Authority and hosted the world's first underwater wedding ceremony in 1996 — a tradition that continues annually. The island has no permanent village or roads, just a handful of resorts backed by jungle and fronted by a stunning coral reef.
Koh Kradan barely changes season: around 28°C most of the year.
There is a clear wet season from April – November, peaking in August with around 342 mm. The dry months run from February.
Wind is rarely an issue; most months sit between calm and a light breeze. Air quality is worth watching: March averages an AQI of 57, while October clears to 27.
Daylight is steady all year, around 12.0 hours a day.
For what you're after, the best months in Koh Kradan are December – April. Expect slow internet (5 Mbps) and a low cost of living (about €700 a month).
