Phuket Attractions
Come and explore the many Phuket attractions, from it's natural beauty to it's many festivals Phuket has over 4 million foreign tourists annually, whilst many of us tourists come to Phuket to simply relax and have fun in the sun.
As tourists we should also get out and explore Phuket, as there are many beautiful places to adventure with guided tours available such as eco tours, sightseeing tours, helicopter scenic tours and family adventure tours. You may even find that some of these Phuket attractions will cost you nothing or are quiet cheap to do. For example the
Amazing Viewpoints
that are dotted around the Island that will give you beautiful panoramic views of Phuket; the most popular is Promthep Cape, with views over the ocean to the surrounding Islands. Or a
visit on of the many temples,
tours of Phuket aren't complete without a visit to Wat Chalong the most revered temple in Phuket or the adventurous drive up the mountain to see Phuket's Big Buddha. A local landmark for both tourists and devout Buddhists to visit. There are beautiful spots inland and National parks that are worth checking out as well as the Gibbon Rehabilitation Centre that is located in the Khao Phra Taew National Park. Phuket Town is also included on tours of Phuket, mainly for it's authentic collection of Sino-Portuguese architecture a reminder of the Islands important and fasinating history.
Some of the best day trips in Phuket are those that are found offshore, a must to do are the tours of Thailand's most loved National Park, the picturesque Phang Nga Bay with its limestone cliffs and sea caves, one of our favorite tours is the sea kayaking or sea canoe tour through the caves. Or experience the sea gypsies (The Chao Leh) way of life, at Koh Phan Yee the largest floating village that is built on stilts. While you are there you may like to experience the thrill of mountain climbing in Thailand and rappelling the limestone cliffs of Phang Nga, with a rock climbing tour. An overnight stay or day trip to the stunning Phi Phi Island with their soaring cliffs, white beaches and crystal clear waters. These Islands are regarded by tourists from all over the world as being the most beautiful tropical Islands in the world, Phi Phi Islands are one of the most popular tourist attractions in Thailand. We recommend spending a couple of days in Phi Phi, but if time is of the essence take a daytrip by speedboat out to these amazing Islands that are popular for scuba diving, snorkeling and fishing trips.

Another beautiful daytrip or overnight stay from Phuket, and one that shouldn't be missed is to explore Krabi, with it's stunning beaches, limestone cliffs and caves and colourful corals. Krabi is situated east of Phi Phi. An adventure tour from Phuket will take you by speed boat from Phuket to the white sandy beaches and coves of Krabi National Park and a visit to Hong Island. Phuket is surrounded by so many smaller Islands, it would take months to explore them all. As you can see Phuket is a great place to just lie back and relax, but it is an excellent place to base yourself for daytrips to many beautiful dive spots that surround it. It is also a departure point for a larger number of livaboard dive trips to the fabulous Simillan Islands and the Mergui Archipeligo. There are lots of 5-Star Padi dive operators in Phuket. Phuket has some amazing cultural shows that are definitely worth seeing or you maybe lucky enough to be in Phuket for the
Phuket Vegetarian Festival or other festivals
that are held throughout the year.
Other Phuket attractions include the beautiful National Parks and
waterfalls,
and many other Sight Seeing adventures. What ever you do on your holiday to Phuket, make sure that you get out and enjoy the the best of all the Phuket Attractions this beautiful island has to offer and have fun.....
