Phuket, Thailand’s largest island, with the shape of an irregular pearl, is 21 kilometres wide and 48 long.
Driving from one tip of the island to the other would take about 1½ hours.
Located in the sparkling waters of the Andaman Sea just 70 minutes flying time south of Bangkok, Thailand’s most popular beach destination has everything that you could possibly want on holiday: beautiful beaches, some of the finest resort hotels, international and Thai cuisine, temples, water sports, coral reefs, turquoise seas, scuba diving and liveaboards, and tropical sunshine — all in plentiful proportions.

Although building sites, new road construction and traffic mar some of the island’s scenery, if you are looking for some quality scuba diving and an action-packed time with plenty of night life, Phuket Island remains the place to be in Thailand.

The range of activities in Phuket continues to grow in sophistication and variety, offering visitors of all budgets, tastes, ages and abilities something to enjoy.
