Holidays in Phuket

In Thailand, there are many islands, each with its own character and style, in each of which you can find a lot of attractions and many options for exciting tours, and just for a lazy holiday. Where else can you get a foot massage on the beach for less than $ 10 per hour? Where else can you enjoy a simple but nutritious meal (which is more like a royal one) for only $ 3-8 per person, and also immerse yourself in an exciting boat tour, including a dinner for the whole family, for $ 80-100 for everyone in general for half a day? All this in the Kingdom of Thailand with amazing hotels and resorts, with such upscale amenities as swimming pools, tennis courts, shops (with decent prices where you can really shop, not just watch), a variety of restaurants and excellent breakfasts.

Why Phuket?

Which island to choose? The answer depends on the personal preferences of the holidaymaker, his budget and the weather. For a family first visiting Thailand from November to May, it is recommended to choose Phuket. This island offers endless possibilities for traveling, suitable for any age. Phuket is a huge island, consisting of areas very different from each other. All the best beaches for swimming and sea sports are on the west side of the island, but there is also a great variety here.

Phuket beaches

The busiest beach is Patong, which is probably the most suitable for young people looking for wild nightlife and parties. Holidaymakers can of course spend a day there to see noise and action, but staying there is not recommended. In the south there are other beaches more suitable for families, such as Karon Beach and Kata Beach, but the best beach for families looking for a quality holiday, to this day remains Bang Tao beach, in its Laguna Phuket area.

In the summer of 2014, almost from all the beaches of the island, beds were removed. Thus, the beaches were returned to their pristine beauty and bounty status. Umbrellas, protecting from the sun, you can rent in the markets near the beach.

Since November 1, 2017 in Thailand, smoking is prohibited on the beaches of Patong (Phuket Island), Bophut (Samui Island), on all the beaches of Pattaya, Hua Hin and Cha-am, the island of Lanta. You can smoke in specially designated places. The maximum penalty for violation of the ban will be a year of imprisonment and / or a fine of up to 100 thousand baht (almost $ 3 000).

What to do on the island of Phuket? The first thing, of course, is to sail to Phang Nga Bay and admire the interesting gorges. These rocks were nicknamed “James Bond Islands”, as one of his films was filmed there. It is recommended to book a private tour, which includes sailing in a long boat between spectacular cliffs, kayaking between them and in nearby caves, lunch in a Muslim village on the poles, viewing the famous mushroom rock that was in the James Bond movie and hiking on one of the smaller islands.

One can not ignore the one-day trip to Ko Phi Phi: there vacationers ride a motor boat and admire the local beauties. Most excursions include visits to both islands, Phi Phi La Phi Phi Don and several stops for scuba diving, bathing, eating, feeding monkeys etc. Most tours also go to the island of High, famous for its numerous fish, which can also be fed from the hands.
