- Phuket Thailand is a excellent vacation destination

with plenty of flights Phuket everyday, beautiful Phuket beaches, great Phuket nightlife, which is real Thailand nightlife set in the emerald Andaman Sea. Phuket weather is mostly sunny, even during monsoon time when the rain really pours down, after a while the sun is shining again, this fact makes the island a genuine all year round vacation destination.

Phuket in southern Thailand offers a diversity of vacation and holiday related themes and availability for rather moderate prices. This pricing spectrum covers a wide range, there are cheap Phuket hotels and luxury Phuket resorts and hotels. The same is for restaurants, villas, Phuket beach bungalows, Phuket nightlife and so on and it wont end there. Several Asia low cost airlines operate flights Phuket for very moderate prices, notable Tiger Airways from Singapore and Air Asia within south east Asia plus several low cost airlines in Thailand such as Nok Air. The National Flag Carrier Thai Airways International sometimes can match prices of the other airlines but Thai Airways usually are bureaucrats who lost the touch to the time, they are only reasonable when you book a international flight to Thailand and add  a flight to Phuket, Chiang Mai, Krabi, Trang, Hat Yai and elsewhere as an extension to the international sector. 

About 100 km to the north of the island is one of the best diving destinations in the world, that’s around the Similan islands close to Khao Lak. Sightseeing and day trip options around Phuket are plenty including the Phang Nga Bay to the east where they made several great movies, among them a James Bond movie (on the now called James Bond Island) and Phi Phi Island further south in Krabi Province where they shot “The Beach” with Leonardo di Caprio on famous Maya Beach. The Phi Phi Islands are easily accessible from Rasada Pier in Phuket Town via several ferries every day at 8am. The island is a genuine   

beach destination where everyone can find just the right beach. Rent a car or a motorbike and just start driving along the west coast starting from Nay Yang Beach is a good winding road from where most of the popular beaches can be accessed such at Kata Beach, Karon Beach, Patong Beach, Kamala Beach, Surin Beach and more to the north. Almost all those beaches have some hotels and resorts somewhere nearby and the road offers breathtaking panoramas over the Andaman Sea. Since there are also restaurants at every beach its easy to do some beach hopping, all this is within about 50km lengths.

- What makes Phuket island such a great travel destination?

The island is first of all an inexpensive very easy going holiday destination with a great Phuket nightlife. Hotels, resorts, apartments, bungalows, cottages and guesthouses can be found in all price categories and ratings and prices are considerably cheaper then what one

would encounter in Europe or America. There is a excellent network of transportation to and from Phuket. At the Phuket bus terminal in Phuket Town, just opposite the "Royal Phuket City Hotel" buses are leaving to all destinations in southern Thailand and Phuket Bangkok. There is a Phuket to Hat Yai bus every hour during daytime, other buses are leaving for Krabi, Trang, Ranong, Satun etc. if someone wants to travel from Phuket to Malaysia by bus or Phuket to Singapore by bus it needs to change the bus at Hat Yai or Padang Besar which is the at the Thai Malaysian border a couple of kilometers to the west

before reaching the usually used border crossing at Sadao. Sadao has an unbelievable nightlife even better than Hat Yai. Car rentals and motor bike rentals in Phuket are plenty, the best is Phuket car rent. Phuket flights are many so various domestic and international destinations such as Singapore, Kuala Lumpur etc. travel to Myanmar needs to go through Bangkok airport and from there to Yangon. Since they issue visas at arrival at Yangon airport now its an easy and quick trip. A quick trip could work like this, take the Phuket Bangkok bus at around 4pm from the bus terminal, arrival at Bangkok's southern bus terminal is around 4.30am. Hop on the taxi to Suvanabhumi airport (about Baht 250,- plus toll) and take the morning flight to Yangon by Air Asia the flight leaves between 7 and 8am, they change this from time to time. This flight from Bangkok to Yangon is also the cheapest one. If you are a guy you can have a great time with Myanmar  nightlife and Myanmar model girls, its worth it, its different ! 

of the far east, also today Phuket is at the crossroads for Phuket Travel, means from Phuket to Krabi and Phuket to Penang plus Phuket to Kuala Lumpur and naturally Phuket to Bangkok. To get a better idea of all this it needs some  Phuket History and Phuket Photos and Phuket Videos. Phuket is not a stand alone Thailand travel destination there are plenty of Phuket Beaches, such as Karon, Patong and other. If you like Golf in Phuket you are also at the right destination, here is a Phuket Map to put all this in context. One of the best Thailand National Parks is Khao Sok a two hour drive north east of Phuket. If you are a nightlife lover Phuket Nightlife is for sure one of the best, in global terms. As you can see Phuket is a travel destination for the individual traveler and the family, here are more Phuket Photos.

Phuket is one of Thailand's most popular tourist destinations for both domestic travelers and foreign tourists with its ideal weather pattern and a excellent accessibility, which makes it attractive for Phuket vacation and tourism-related investment.
At Phuket are real idyllic locations with exclusive resort. Other hotel and resorts are on the islands in the Phang Nga Bay. One of them is Yao Yai Island, a ideal place to play Robinson. Phuket luxury beach villas, at Phuket’s Mai Khao beach have usually two and three-

bedrooms, plus a outdoor living area, private pool, sun deck, terrace and private gardens. Some of the Phuket beach houses and hotels are stylish in a very modern design and have most of the time some traditional Thai architectural elements.

The next similar real estate developments are about 800 km further down at Penang Georgetown, actually Penang has a lot in common with Phuket, first both are islands and second they have a very similar history which was always interconnected in particular during British colonial times. Here is how to go from Phuket to Penang and Phuket to Kuala Lumpur. The best visibility of this interconnection between Penang, Kuala Lumpur and Phuket is the Chinatown in all 3 places. Penang Chinatown has similarities with the area around Dibuk Street at Phuket City. Also Kuala Lumpur Chinatown is very similar in terms of architecture and night markets, they even sell the same goods.

Most of the hotels, resorts, houses and so on are not further off than about 60 minutes road travel to the airport, there is a 4 to 6 lane highway from the northern entry to Phuket at the Sarasin Bridge all the way down to Rawai Beach at the southernmost tip of Phuket.

Phuket has grown into one of the premier holiday destinations in South East Asia and is one of the busiest travel destinations of Thailand with plenty of flights Phuket every day. It has replaced Bali as the most popular holiday island in the region.

Dining in restaurants or buying drinks in bars or clubs on Phuket is also much less expensive then what most tourists are used to paying back in their home countries.
