Phuket


Phuket is the kind of place that is breathtaking in the summer and yet attractive in the rainy season.


Driving around the island of rain can be fun and exciting, so I got together with some friends and went alone. The first route began in the Sarasin bridge of a legend of true love took place. While driving over the bridge if you make a wish for love and hold your breath until the end, is said to come true.


Follow the road along Mai Khao Beach, became the breeding ground of leather-back turtles, a pride and joy of Phuketians. You will also find some five-star hotels throughout the area.


Leaving the beach and turn on the road, we Baan Koh Aen and could not make a stop. At the end of the road, a marina was presented to us so that we realized this is where luxury yachts are anchored. No wonder that Phuket was voted "Best of Asia's Maritime Capital." There are ports in the excursion boats take visitors around the green islands and hotels, while relaxing with a cup of coffee in hand, admiring the stunning views beyond.


Back to km 10. on the road, turn the direction of the airport directly to Nai Yang Beach and National Park Sirinart reached. Upon entering we were greeted with rows of pine trees and white sand beach where turtles back leather lay their eggs. It is a good place to take a dip in the ocean or go snorkeling and admire beautiful corals.


After that, we went to Naiton Beach. This area is quieter than other beaches, making it the ideal place for a private tour for two. The wind and the waves here are pretty strong so I got wet without having to go in the water.


Following the road meanders along the beach and up and down the mountain, we see the panoramic ocean views and lush rubber plantations. Reaching Layan Beach arrived at La Laguna, an old mine that had been renovated into a hotel with golf course. It would be good to go a round or two if we had the time. Instead, we went for a great lunch at one of several restaurants in the area.


Full-stomachs and ready to rock, we headed to the beach of Surin. This area is full of stalls selling local chicken Somtam steakhouse that is loved by Thais and foreigners.


The landscape around Kamala Beach is magnificent, both along the beach and cliffs. Passing through we Kalim Patong Beach, the center of tourist paradise. We loved the shopping, nightlife and the sights and sounds that go on all day. You should find the time to come to club hopping one of those days.


Next on the list is Karon beach, the longest of Phuket. Visitors can find their own place away from everyone here. In Kata Beach you can find groups of young surfers riding and moving in and out of the waves.


As the day progressed, we went to Laem Promthep and waited patiently to witness the most beautiful sunset. Lasted only seconds, but it was quite memorable. Before leaving, we retreaded down and took some photos as a souvenir of this beautiful day.


Taking a drive around the island of Phuket with her friends was a day well spent. All I found, beaches, people, attractions, restaurants consists of a fun-filled day that will live in memory of all the coming years.
