Phuket Travel Guide
An island of contrasts, Phuket has much to offer its
visitors. White sandy beaches abound the west coast and
mangrove lined shores, the east. A range of hills runs down
her back from north to south, dividing the island in half.
Waterfalls, especially in the ‘wet’ season spill into rock
pools, scattered down the slopes. In the distance, islands
rear out of the Andaman Sea, waiting to be explored.
Whether
coming here on business or a holiday, accommodation and
entertainment are both reasonably priced and varied. From
hotels to resorts to bungalows, whatever your ‘pocket’; the
tourist will find somewhere to stay. As to entertainment,
whether it’s water sports, horse riding, jungle walking,
eating out, watching a show, dancing, elephant trekking, or
playing golf, whatever your fancy, this island has it all.
Some hotels offer ‘in-house’ entertainment that include the
above as well as their own gymnasiums, saunas and the like.
Phuket and its surrounding water’s are world renowned for
their spectacular beauty and nature’s artistic hand.
Phang
Nga Bay to the northeast of Phuket has been the set of two
James Bond movies as well as others. Not forgetting the more
recent filming of ‘The Beach’ on the islands to the south of
Phang Nga. For those who like to splash around in the water,
one can go snorkelling along one of shores of the west coast
or take a dive trip to one of the many islands lying off
shore. You charter a yacht and spend your days drifting from
island to island or go windsurfing. Elephant trekking is a
new attraction on the island.
