thailand's beaches: phuket |
|
|
The island of Phuket is just an hour’s flight from Bangkok and its spectacular scenery, stunning tropical location and warm blue seas make it one of Thailand’s most popular beach destinations. A large island with plenty of beaches and different types of hotels, Phuket has something to offer everyone, from the watersports and nightlife of Patong beach, to diving in the Andaman Sea or golf at its championship courses or perhaps just the simple luxury provided by some of the best hotels in Asia.
