Phuket

When you ask someone for a suggestion for an exotic island getaway somewhere in Asia, Phuket is one of the top answers that you will get. This is not a wonder at all, since Phuket is a premier beach destination in the Southeast Asian country of Thailand. Located in the southernmost tip of the country, Phuket is the largest island where there are only two cities which are not on the beach: Phuket Town and Chalong Bay.

Top Reasons Why You Should Visit Phuket, Thailand

There are plenty of reasons why you should take up anyone on a suggestion to spend a weekend, weeklong or even month-long getaway in Phuket. First of all, Thailand in general is known as the “Land of Smiles”. The minute that you step off the airport, you will be greeted with warm smiles from the locals. Thai culture is also something to behold, with unique sports like muay thai to capture your interest.

Second, Phuket itself is known as the original island paradise. No matter what type of beach it is that you find most fascinating, you will definitely see it in Phuket. Patong Beach is the largest beach resort in Phuket, which also earned a reputation of being the party capital of Asia. If you’re looking for a stunning sunset, venture into Karon beach and you’ll find the view simply breathtaking.

For a view of unspoiled hills, mangroves and sandy coves, take a day trip to Cape Panwa Beach. A lush tropical island where you can truly get away from it all and relax by a hammock is Mi Khao Beach. All in all, there are almost twenty beach destinations that you can choose from in Phuket alone – which is why it is one of the most oft-travelled destinations in Southeast Asia.

Third, Thailand in general offers a wide array of mouth-watering flavors including authentic pad thai and curry dishes, bound to warm the heart of everyone who loves foods. Fourth, you will have a sense of not getting enough of Thailand’s tropical rainforests, especially when you go on adventures like a canopy walk or a jungle trek.

Finally, there are endless shopping and sightseeing activities that you can indulge in while visiting Thailand.

More than Just the Beaches: Other Things to Do when Travelling to Phuket

Now that you already have an idea about the numerous beach destinations that you can visit in this country, what other tourist-y and off-the-beaten track activities can you indulge in when travelling to Phuket? For a water-oriented adventure that will not get you wet, check out the Phuket Aquarium in Cape Panawa. The Crocodile Farm at Chana Charoen Road is where you can see the staff tame crocodiles and alligators. There’s also FantaSea, the Butterfly Farm, Chalong Temple and experience some of the biggest waterfalls in Phuket, Thailand.

No matter where you interests lie as a traveller, you will definitely not be lacking for things to do and places to visit in Phuket. More importantly, the islands offer accommodations and travel packages for tourists on every budget – whether you’re a backpacking traveller or if you’re looking for something more luxurious.

With all these reasons and more, it’s no wonder why until now, Phuket has remained to be one of the most-visited beach and exotic island destinations in Asia.
