Phuket is located on the Upper Andaman Coast along the Southern Thailand peninsula. Rugged and scenic, the island juts out into the green waters of the Andaman Sea and the natural beauty of Phuket is what makes it one of the most popular tourist resorts within Thailand.

Phuket can be enjoyed as a quieter more relaxing resort or a lively, action packed holiday depending on which location your accommodation of choice is situated. Patong is the most popular area of Phuket amongst tourists and it has a huge beach known for the bubbly atmosphere and energetic nightlife.

If you want to unwind, towns like Karon and Kata have smaller, quieter beaches while still being close enough to hop into a taxi or tuk tuk and be in Patong in 10 minutes. Diving is extremely popular in Patong thanks to the magnificent natural marine life and the larger resorts have a variety of water sports on offer including jet skis, wind surfing and banana boating.
