Phuket and Southern Thailand

Phuket is an island of swaying palm trees and beautiful beaches with a lively nightlife and plenty of opportunities to shop till you drop! The beaches of Southern Thailand are less developed and more tranquil, providing a relaxing holiday haven.

Only one hour by air from Bangkok and set in the blue waters of the Andaman Sea, this oriental eden has so much to offer – luxurious hotels, bars, fabulous seafood restaurants, hundreds of intriguing souvenir shops, championship golf courses and an energetic nightlife. This pleasure island offers spectacular sunsets, lush mountain greenery and secluded coves. There are a wide variety of watersports to choose from including some of Asia’s finest diving and sailing spots as well as a large selection of sightseeing excursions.

Relatively unknown and certainly unspoiled, Krabi is a 11/2 hr flight from Bangkok or a 3 hour scenic boat trip from Phuket. Less commercialised than other resorts in Thailand, Krabi is the ideal spot   for romantic breaks and for those who want to experience real beauty   in unspoilt surroundings. The Ao Nang beach area is famous for its   stunning coastal scenery featuring white sandy beaches, swaying   palm trees and huge limestone rocks jutting out of the clear turquoise   waters of the Andaman Sea. Divers and snorkellers will enjoy great   underwater visibility showcasing plentiful marine life around the live   coral.

Trang is a mere one-hour away from Krabi and provides a beautiful rural retreat with breathtaking beaches, deserted islands and a number of Wildlife Sanctuaries and National Parks.
