Fun Things to Do in Phuket - Adventures by the beach

Phuket is a fun place to go on a holiday to and there are many things for you to do and see while you are here. To know of the best, read on.

1

Parasailing

This is certainly an exhilarating activity you must not miss out on when you are in this part of Thailand. Parasailing should definitely be the first on your list if you are somebody who loves adventurous things. Every beach in Phuket will have many parasailing operators and you can pick and choose one based on the reviews or if you knew anybody who has experience with an instructor, is better to stick to that person.

Home away from Home

Many people opt to stay in Phuket for months on the end and work there to take a break from their daily life. Because of this, the Phuket real estate has been growing splendidly and you can also check out places for long term rent at properties like Layan Residences by Anantara.

Wakeboarding Park

This is one of the toughest things you can do on a holiday and you can experience this without going into the deep seas at the wakeboarding park. Wakeboarding is an experience that can be had by both amateurs and professionals. The park has a huge 400 metres long man-made lake that is filled with frameworks. Experienced instructors will teach you the basics on how to wakeboard safely and the rest of the equipment you need for this experience can be hired at the park itself. This park is not just for the adventurous crowd, you can also find a bar and a restaurant here that caters to all kinds of people. This is a nice place for you to have a fun day and enjoy chilling at the bar.

Windsurfing

Of all the beaches in Phuket, at least half of them offer windsurfing opportunities. Patong Beach has more than 7 windsurfing centres right on the beach. This is yet another activity that might sound like it should be reserved for professionals but luckily, itt is not. Even if you are pretty new to this activity you can get trained and go windsurfing in a matter of hours. Therefore, Phuket is a great place for both amateurs and professionals. During the rainy season in Phuket, the calm waters and steady winds make a great combination for windsurfing. This is the time when the avid windsurfers crowd to this part of the country to try their hand at this activity. Therefore, keep in mind that during the monsoon season windsurfing activities can be quite expensive to indulge in.

Sailing

Sailing is an activity that seems hard to do at first glance, but once you try it out, you will find out that it is not that difficult. Usually, the accommodation you choose will have a boat or two, failing which you can find plenty of water sports centres along any of the major beaches. Some of the rules of windsurfing apply to sailing too. Thus, the best time to go sailing is during the monsoon season between the months of November and May.
