WELCOME TO PHUKET, THAILAND


PHUKET ISLAND – THE PEARL OF THE ANDAMAN SEA

Phuket Island is one of Thailand's smallest provinces and the country's largest
island by far. Thailand’s next largest island is Koh Samui, off the coast of
Surat Thani, at around half the size of Phuket. Most islands are hilly, and
Phuket is no exception with seventy percent of the island being mountainous and
hilly, and the rest is plains and valleys where most people live. Phuket is
filled with amazing beaches you and your family can explore.


WHERE IS PHUKET?

Phuket island is a 49-kilometer-long amoeba-shaped island in the Andaman Sea
just south of Phang Nga province and connected by the Sarasin bridge. Krabi
province is east of Phuket across Phang Nga Bay at only 34 kilometres by air.
There is no flight connecting the two places, presumably to allow taxis and boat
ferries to make money as well as the airlines. If you want to fly to Phuket from
Krabi, you’ll need to fly 800 kilometres to Bangkok, then 800 km. back down to
Phuket. If it seems ridiculous, well, this won’t be the last thing you’re
scratching your head about after arriving! You’ll be happy to know there are
direct flights from Phuket to Koh Samui and Pattaya.

Phuket island has everything to offer for a perfect holiday, whether you are
travelling alone, as a couple, with a group of friends or the entire family.
Beautiful beaches, tropical weather, delicious food, endless shopping
possibilities, amazing viewpoints and attractions, beauty and massage parlours,
luxurious spas and accommodation that suits anyone's budget.

Phuket beaches are world-renowned as some of the most beautiful in the world.
You’re probably coming to Phuket at least in part, for that reason! White sand,
small waves or sometimes glassy, and the ultimate in relaxation or wild
nightlife… all describe the beaches on Phuket Island. With over 50 beaches, you
will have a perfect vacation. You’ve picked the right spot!

Phuket is surrounded by smaller islands, of which the Phi Phi islands to the
east are the most popular. In the north lies the beautiful Phang Nga province.

While the old Sarasin bridge has been rebuilt into a public promenade, ideal for
a sunset visit, the newer Thepkrasattri bridges connect the island to the
mainland, making Phuket accessible by road, air, and sea.

The most popular tourist area on Phuket is Patong, with its vibrant nightlife
and endless shopping possibilities and the island's central local city Phuket
Town.

Most developed beach towns are located on the west coast of Phuket. South of
Patong you will find Karon, Kata, Kata Noi, Nai Harn, Chalong , Cape Panwa and
Rawai with the famous Promthep Cape.

Kalim, Kamala, Surin, Bang Tao, Nai Thon, Nai Yang and Mai Khao are located
north of Patong and are visited by those who prefer a less crowded and more
relaxed environment.

POPULAR FRUITS IN PHUKET

Posted by Sepp Hatzl | Apr 25, 2023

When it comes to fruits in Phuket, Thailand, the country, with its great variety
and diversity, is a veritable Garden of Eden. Thailand is blessed with a climate
that permits almost any type of tropical fruit to flourish and, surprisingly
enough, many fruits and vegetables we automatically take as being Southeast
Asian natives are in fact imports from Africa and South America, with a few
notable exceptions such as the notorious durian and the ever-present banana.
