Thailand is one of those places that should be in your bucket list, and of course Phuket, The Island of Dream is the most beautiful place to visit in this country.
Phuket is a province with tropical forests which is in the Andaman Sea. You can go to Phuket in a domestic flight from Don Muang Airport in Bangkok.
The island has many villages in which there is a hectic nightlife and there are other villages which are more peaceful and quiet to spend time with family.
If you are a fan of water sports, you’ll love Phuket. Diving, snorkelling, sailing and windsurf are great options for having fun.
So according to what you are looking for, it is best to decide first where you want to stay.
Phuket offers a wide and colourful variety of views and some of the most unforgettable sunsets I’ve ever seen. In the south coast there are the most popular and crowded beaches and in the north there are the quietest of them.
Koh Phi Phi, Phang Nga Bay and Patong Beach are the most famous places you can visit.
Phuket-Patong
Patong Beach is the center of nightlife, where there are lots of discos and nightclubs.
To the north of Patong, far from the noise and crowd, it is Kamala Beach, a small, nice and quiet beach, from there you can take a boat to visit Rock Island and Banana Beach.
Transportation in Phuket is a bit more expensive than in the rest of Thailand. 800 Baht is a taxi from the airport to Kamala (U$1=30 Baht). To rent a motorbike you have to pay 240 baht and they drive on the left and although many people ride motorbikes. I find it quite dangerous in Phuket City because there’s a lot of traffic.
Phuket-Koh Phi Phi
If you want to spend time in a paradisiacal place, you must definitely go to Koh Phi Phi and stay for at least a couple of days.
If you want to spend time in a paradisiacal place, you must definitely go to Koh Phi Phi and stay for at least a couple of days.
You can take a ferry from Phuket for 450 Baht and in one hour and a half you will be in Koh Phi Phi.
Before entering the island you have to pay a fee of 20 Baht.
In this small island there aren’t cars or motorbikes, there are only narrow paths to walk and alongside there are shops where you can buy souvenirs and clothes , restaurants where you can eat delicious seafood.
Phuket-Bamboo Island, Monkey Beach Tour
There are many places where you can book Long Tail boats to have a tour to Bamboo Island, Monkey Beach and other famous places. The price for a three hour private tour is around 1500 baht. To enjoy the beach you must pay 400 Baht because this area is a national park.
If you want to avoid crowds of people, you should at least go around 6.00 a.m. Here you will see those incredible beaches with turquoise water.
As a result; I can say that I fell in love with the beaches of Thailand and I’m sure I will go back one day. This country is a singular destiny. Every place you know will surprise you and it will remain forever in your best memories.
