Day One – Explore the Beaches

For swimming and soaking in the rays, explore the beaches on the west coast of the island. In the north, you can find the tranquil Naithon, Bang Tao and Mai Khao. In Surin, the beaches extend lengthy distances. Patong Beach is filled with jet skis and travellers, in the south, you can find Kata, Karon, and Nai Harn. Freedom Beach is a stunning and secluded beach in Phuket. If craving for some privacy or a private beach experience this may well be the location for you.

Layan Beach is a famous place for those wanting to escape from the chaotic atmosphere of Phuket’s infamous beaches. Its shallow waters are well-suited for children and popular with families.

For diving and snorkelling, the Coral Island and Similan islands near Phuket are some of the best in the world.

Day 3 - Spend your day with elephants

Visit the Elephant jungle sanctuary in Phuket. The elephant is the national animal of Thailand but unfortunately is also the most abused animal in the tourist industry.
