Phuket

Many people can remember when Patong Beach, Phuket's main resort, was nothing more than a few bungalows on a quiet stretch of sand. Today it is the most popular resort on an island which attracts thousands of visitors every year from around the world.
Located on a long, sweeping bay, Patong Beach has a well developed tourist infrastructure and a vast variety of nightlife, offering everything from small beer bars to modern cocktail lounges.
The rapid development of this island into a vast tourist complex has left some scars, but for most tourists it offers a good combination of lazy days on the beach and lively nights in the bars. The Phuket Fantasia show is, by all reports, well worth a visit and there are also four good golf courses on the island.
The island's capital, Phuket Town, is another hive of activity and worth a visit.

Getting to Phuket
There are night buses and various other nefarious ways of travelling, but the only practical way to get the Phuket is by air. There are many flights from Bangkok each day and except at the very height of the season you can normally walk straight on.
There are also direct flights from Samui and a few other smaller airports. International flights, from surrounding countries, fly in daily. In the high season there are some direct flights from Europe.The airport is well to the north of the island and minibus, or taxi transfers, are then booked at the airport. Unfortunately the transport from the airport has been taken over by a couple of very unpleasant and unhelpful companies. It is one of the worst hassle factor airports I know. The minibuses, which are supposed to go regularly to main areas, are constantly delayed in an attempt to get you to take an expensive (by Thai standards) taxi.

Getting around
In central Patong a good pair of legs and the ability to walk will get you to most areas. There are tuk tuk mini buses, whose drivers will offer to take you anywhere you want to go but, as ever, agree the price before you set off. You can also get around by taxi or bus and there are plenty of cars bikes and jeeps to hire. If you do rent a vehicle, however - particularly a bike - please make sure you read our tips for travellers.
