Sightseeing in Phuket

Below are a selection of popular Phuket Attractions available instantly for advance reservation; Jungle Trek & Nature Walk - Phuket Thailand, Jungle Safari Khao Sok and Island Hopping

Nightlife in Phuket

The sex tourism sector in Phuket is nowhere near the scale of that found in Bangkok or Pattaya but it is still an attraction for a large number of visitors. You do not need to be an active participant to go to the go-go bars. Couples, families and tour groups mingle with the sex tourists wandering around the bars.

Dinning out in Phuket

One of the wonderful characteristics of Thailand is the reverence for food and eating, so you can eat at almost any time of the day. Tropical fruit, banana fritters, barbecue chicken and sticky rice? It's all here.

Weather

The southwest monsoon, May till October, sees the rainiest and most unpredictable weather along with frequent swells off the Indian Ocean. The northeast monsoon season, roughly November till April, brings consistently sunny weather, cool breezes and low humidity, with moderate seas.

Safety Issues

The tragic tsunami of 2004 has been well documented and though the odds of it occurring again in the near future are slim, the Aceh-Andaman fault line remains a threat so that a tsunami warning system, with buoys, sirens and evacuation routes has been put in place. Be aware that tsunami drills are undertaken from time-to-time.
