The daytrip dive operators are in business all year round. Depending on the weather, there is still some great diving to be had around Phuket. I would not go to the Similans, regardless of whether boats are going out there or not, because if the weather does blow up there is nowhere out there to shelter and it is a long gauntlet to run to get back to the sheltered east side of Phuket.

I'd forget all about the beach too. All the best beaches on the island face west or southwest and are fully exposed to the worst of our weather at that time of year.
