Thailand is home to a large variety of delicious fruits, both seasonal,
such as durian, rambutan, mangosteen, longan, lychee etc. and
all-year-round, such as papaya, guava, coconut, orange, banana,
pineapple, rose apple etc., all of which are as nutritious as they are
delicious.
The huge variety of local produce, combined with the culinary art of
the Thai people, has resulted in a wealth of ways that Thai fruits can
be enjoyed all-year-round.
Here is a table that shows the best time (peak season) for the most important Thai

Simply speaking, Thailand is a real paradise for the fruit lovers.
An incredible array and great quality of both the quaint species and
long-familiar tropical fruits alike, are handy and meaningly priced all the way
around Thailand. A diverse selection of fruits is easily found at numerous fruit
shops, supermarkets and market places. Also, lots of street vendors and
hucksters sell seasonal fruits on sidewalks, in tourist's spots or right on the
beaches. Thai vendors usually retail what is called 'ready to eat' fruit, by
hand or with a wooden stick in a plastic bag. Sellers may even invite you to
sample some untamed exotic fruit. Undoubtedly, all kinds of Thai fruits, whether
these familiar names like melon, apple, banana, mango, grapefruit (some call
that citrus pomelo or pummelo), or the newly discovered exotic treats, will
pleasantly surprise you. Just keep in mind, many varieties of the same fruit
would taste entirely different, so keep sampling the treat whenever and whatever
is ready to hand. Aside, it is worthy to point out the so delightful Thai lime
or lemon juices, which are widely available in most restaurants, bars and hotels
along with the orange, mango, pineapple, banana, papaya, watermelon, mandarin,
sugarcane, carrot and many other freshly extracted fruits and vegetables.
Needless to mention that the cheapest places to buy fruits are the much popular
Thai fruit markets. Still, a golden rule for choosing fruits is – the more
expensive, the better!
