Wind Sucks
I was Karon in July for 3 days. The first two days the off shore winds made the shoulder-high break sloppy and difficult to paddle out. The third day, the wind stopped and the waves were clean and the paddle was easy.

October
I surfed Karon and Kata for the whole of october last year. There was a consistant 3ft swell. Apart from a couple of locals i surfed alone. There were daily rain storms that lasted an hour or so but nothing too heavy. Will be heading there again this year.
