What should I know about lightning safety while golfing in Thailand?

Thailand's tropical climate can lead to sudden thunderstorms, particularly in the rainy season from May to October.

If you hear thunder or see lightning, it's crucial to take immediate precautions by seeking shelter in a clubhouse or any sturdy building on the course. • Most golf courses in Thailand have clear protocols in place for lightning safety, including warning sirens.

Make sure you pay attention to these signals, as they indicate that you should stop play and find cover without delay.

Waiting it out in a safe area is always better than risking your safety on the course.
