<p>When going out in Phuket island, you will<span id="more-75"></span> probably want some transportation. You can rent a tuk tuk, which is a taxi cab, or take the bus. Be careful not to allow the tuk tuk driver to be your &#8220;guide&#8221; during your holiday. Tourists are often an easy target in any tourist area and Phuket Island is no different. Arrange a fare with the driver before you allow him to take you anywhere.</p>
<p>Phuket Island is a relatively safe holiday destination and is probably much safer than large cities in the West. There are tourist police everywhere and most of them speak English as well as an assortment of other languages. Many of the people who visit Phuket Island come from Europe, Australia and Japan. People in the United States are just beginning to discover the wonders of Phuket Island as air fare to this part of the world continues to drop. </p>
<p>You should be careful to take precautions when going out in Phuket Island, Thailand. Stay on the beaten path and do not carry more money than necessary. This is common sense whenever you are traveling anywhere. Going out in Phuket Island, Thailand is no different than going out in your own city. You actually have more of a chance falling prey to a crime when you are at home and your guard is down than while on holiday, but take safety precautions anyway.</p>
<p>When going out in Phuket Island to the markets or night markets, make sure that you keep your money in a place where it will be difficult for someone to sneak away from you. Pick pockets usually work in teams &#8211; one person distracts you while the other lifts your wallet. Keep your wits about you and do not carry your wallet in your back pocket where it can easily be snatched. </p>
<p>Dress is casual when going out in Phuket Island, Thailand. Just like any other tourist destination, casual dress is accepted in all of the restaurants. When packing for your trip, bring some casual but smart clothes that can be worn in the nicer restaurants. Remember that the weather is very hot in Phuket Island and pack accordingly. </p>
<p>When going out in P<br />
1000<br />
huket Island, Thailand, you can visit some of the nightclubs that play live music or visit the wild side of town in Patong where the go go bars are still operating. Phuket Island relies on the tourist trade for their living and although some hedonistic pleasures, such as the go go bars, are frowned upon, they still operate in abundance, particularly in Patong Beach. </p>
<p>For a more sedate time when going out in Phuket Island, Thailand, visit Phuket Town and view some of the historic sites. In Phuket Town, you can also dine in some of the finest restaurants on the island. Whatever you want to do during your Asian holiday, you can find it in Phuket Island.</p>

<p>The 5 Most Popular Tourist Destinations In Thailand</p>
<p>Travelers who are planning a trip to Thailand will be able to choose from a wide variety of wonderful travel destinations. There are many beautiful Thai islands from which they can select as well as other type of travel destinations such as Bangkok and Chiang Mai. </p>
<p>Tourists can choose to visit the North of<span id="more-74"></span> Thailand which has beautiful mountains, magnificent flora and fauna and unique hill tribes. Those travelers that have a preference for a nice relaxing beach holiday can choose to stay at one of the popular Thai travel destinations such as Phuket, Pattaya, Hua Hin or Koh Samui. </p>
<p>Thailand has something to offer to all travelers which is why Thailand is such as ideal tourist destination. If you need help in deciding where in Thailand you should spend your vacation then be sure to consider the following 5 most popular travel destinations in Thailand.</p>
<p>Bangkok</p>
<p>Bangkok is the capital city of Thailand and nearly all travelers going to Thailand will pass through this popular Thai travel destination. Although Bangkok has a bad reputation due to the bad traffic problems and the air pollution, Bangkok is definitely one destination where every traveler should spend a few days during their vacation in Thailand. Bangkok has many great attractions such as beautiful Buddhist temples, a variety of spectacular shopping malls and unique activities such as the floating market.</p>
<p>Phuket</p>
<p>One of the most visited travel destinations in Thailand is Phuket. This popular island is in fact the largest island in Thailand and Phuket has many attractions to offer its visitors. The beaches on Phuket are among the most beautiful beaches in Thailand and there are plenty of excellent Phuket beach resorts from which travelers can select. Many travelers choose to visit Phuket on vacation because of the world famous Phuket nightlife and the many great Phuket bars. Other popular tourist attractions on Phuket include the Phuket Fantasea Show, the Simon Cabaret Show and of course a number of world class golf courses. A number of different airlines offer multiple flights a day from one of the Bangkok airports to Phuket International Airport.</p>
<p>Pattaya</p>
<p>Pattaya is the beach resort area which is closest located to Bangkok which is<br />
1000<br />
why many local Bangkok residents visit Pattaya during weekends. The beach at Pattaya is actually not very impressive when compared to the beaches found on Phuket or Samui however the beach is not the primary reason why Pattaya is one of the most popular travel destinations in Thailand. The biggest attraction for many visitors is in fact the lively nightlife which can be found in Pattaya. There are thousands of beer bars and other type of Pattaya nightlife venues where tourists can mingle with the lovely Thai girls that work in these establishments. The fastest way to reach Pattaya from Bangkok is by car. A taxi from Bangkok to Pattaya will cost you around 1200 THB.</p>
<p>Samui</p>
<p>Samui is a beautiful tropical island which is located off the east coast of Thailand. The beaches on Samui are even more beautiful then those found on Phuket. The most popular Samui beaches are all located on the east coast of Koh Samui and are Chaweng beach, Lamai beach and Big Buddha beach. If you are looking for a resort area on Samui which offers plenty of activities and plenty of nightlife venues then be sure to book a hotel or resort in Chaweng beach. Both Thai Airways and Bangkok Airways offer several daily flights from Bangkok to Samui.</p>
<p>Chiang Mai</p>
<p>Chiang Mai offers travelers a different type of holiday experience then what those travelers visiting one of the beach destinations experience. Chiang Mai is located in the mountains in the North of Thailand. Chiang Mai is a great destination for those travelers that would really like to experience Thai culture and the cultures of the hill tribes. If you enjoy the nature then Chiang Mai is a great choice as there are various great attractions in and around Chiang Mai such as trekking, rafting, elephant riding and visits to the nearby hill tribes. A number of different airlines offer several flights per day to Chiang Mai from either one of the Bangkok airports. The best time to visit Chiang Mai is during Song Kran which is the Thai New Year festival.</p>

<p>Phuket Island is one of the most popular travel destinations of Thailand. One of the main reasons why so many tourists visit&#160; each year is because it has some of the finest beaches in all of Asia. If you love beach holidays then you should definitely consider visiting this magnificent island on vacation.</p>
<p>Phuket has a large number of beautiful white sandy beaches<span id="more-72"></span> and most of these amazing beaches are located on the west coast of the island. If you are planning a trip to this Thai holiday island then there are several beaches which you should definitely visit and spend some time at. I have listed for you some of the best locations down below.</p>
<p>Nai Harn Beach</p>
<p>Nai Harn beach is my favorite beach on on the island and many expats prefer to spend their free days at this spectacular beach. There are only a few resorts at Nai Harn beach which is why you won&#8217;t feel crowded at this beach. There are however a number of great little seafood restaurants at this destination and prices are generally very affordable. If you are looking for activities then you will also be happy at this excellent beach as there is a number of water sport companies located at this beautiful location on the island.</p>
<p>Surin Beach</p>
<p>Another very popular Phuket beach among the expat population is Surin beach which is located between Laguna and Kamala bay. This long white sandy beach is also home to some of the finest seafood restaurants of the island. This wonderful location generally only gets a bit crowded during the high season. There are a few resorts located in the Surin area however this area of the island is generally better known for its high end real estate projects.</p>
<p>Patong Beach</p>
<p>Patong beach is one of the most crowded beaches however many travelers certainly seem to prefer this. You will never get bored at this location as there are plenty of&#160; vendors, massage ladies and water sport companies offering you jet skiing, water skiing and parasailing. If you enjoy shopping then please note that there are plenty of shops and boutiques which line the main road of Patong.</p>
<p>Kata Beach</p>
<p>One of the most popular beaches is most certainly Kata which is located just south of Patong. Kata is one of the longest beaches of Phuket so you can enjoy up to a certain level of privacy when spending the day at Kata. The water of the Andaman Sea is generally very calm during the tourist high season. During the low season there are some waves and during this period of the year you will find local surfers hanging out at this wonderful location.</p>

<p>Phuket Weather</p>
<p>Most of the people who travel to Phuket Island, Thailand, visit during the months between November through March. This is known as the &#8220;high&#8221; season of tourism. During this time, it is quite warm and humid. The temperatures in the high season are very hot and average around 95 degrees Fahrenheit. </p>
<p>Phuket weather is tropical weather.<span id="more-71"></span> During the high season, it often rains in the afternoons and cools everything off. The rain during the non-monsoon season is short lived and does not stop any activities. Most of natives of Phuket are used to the rain as they live through the monsoon season every year. </p>
<p>The hot and tropical weather makes Phuket an ideal place to visit when you want to get away from the cold. People who live in parts of Western Europe and North America experience extremely cold temperatures from November through March, which is when it is the hottest in Phuket. </p>
<p>From late May to November, the Phuket weather gets a bit cooler, which is about 88 degrees Fahrenheit, on the average. Visiting Phuket during this time of the year can be very pleasant as the cooler temperatures make sightseeing a little more enjoyable. The incessant rain does not stop any of the activities on the island as it is seen as cooling. During the month of May, it will rain on the average of 25 days throughout the month. After this, however, it does not rain as often, although you can still count on getting rain if you visit Phuket during the monsoon season. </p>
<p>The best months to visit Phuket are June through August. During this time, there are short storms, but the temperatures are not as high as they are during September through November. Some tourists prefer to visit Phuket during the monsoon season because the hotels generally offer special discounts as do most of the shops. If you are seeking to travel to Phuket on a budget, the time to go is from May to November. </p>
<p>The Phuket weather is always hot, to those who are used to a variety of temperatures. It rarely dips below 80 degrees Fahrenheit, which, to some in the West, is very hot weather. It rains often, but more during the monsoon season. The tropical climate adds to the foliage of the area and allows certain plants and fruits to grow in this climate. </p>
<p>The only thing that you cannot do during the monsoon season is swim off the West beaches. This is because there are strong currents at this time<br />
1000<br />
of the year. Other than that, the monsoon season rarely affects any trips or pleasure activities. For most people, traveling to Phuket during the monsoon season can be more pleasant when it comes to Phuket weather, than traveling in the high season when it is so very hot all of the time. </p>
<p>When packing for your trip to Phuket Island, Thailand, remember to bring light clothing and swimming costumes as well as plenty of sun block. The Phuket weather is guaranteed to be hot and will most likely be sunny during most of your holiday.</p>
