A trip to Thailand is not complete without visiting the magical islands of southern Thailand. Phuket Island has been the centre of tourist activities since the 1970s with a rich culture of holiday resorts and amazing beach parties throughout the years. The southern part of Thailand is home to some of the most beautiful beaches and coastal landscapes. A long strip of land called Kra Isthmus is lined with breathtaking beaches and thick jungles in the middle. I am exploring the best things to do in Phuket Thailand for one one-week stay. 

Pattaya & Neighbouring Islands

Depending on the duration of your stay, budget and choice of activities you can choose your location in Pattaya. The public transport is pretty effective and you can hop on and off vans taking passengers around the city. However, not all beaches are close to each other and there is a fair amount of travel time required in peak periods due to heavy traffic. Therefore, choose your destination smartly. You can easily catch a bus or hire a taxi from Bangkok International Airport. The taxi is regulated and make sure you go through the proper queue and know what price you are paying for Pattaya. 

Pattaya has historically enjoyed a notorious reputation for being the sex capital of Thailand attracting over millions of travellers from across the world seeking fun and adventure without any limits or constraints.

Travelling from Phuket to Krabi and Koh Samui is probably the most popular tourist trail and itinerary in Southern Thailand. The whole area is quite spread out and you would need over 3 to 4 days to explore most of these locations. If you are planning to holiday for a longer period there is too much to see in this interesting part of Thailand.
