This nice long beach is fairly quiet and remains more or less free of neon lights and other signs of over-commercialization. There are several resorts in the area.

This beach is very far from the airport...but so very worth it. Clean, amazing facilities in all the hotels and guest houses, not as cheap touristy...no sleaze factor here.

When you come out of the airport you may need a shuttle but/taxi. Be careful as sometimes the stop at a jewellry store/tour/hotel booking centre….they will try to sell you tours and stuff to make a commission. Simply tell them you want to go straight to the hotel and that all your tours are booked. We had a major hassle, but I remembered to tell them to just take us to the hotel. We stayed in Patong. Please note that this is a party town! There is a strip with all bars and clubs and it gets rowdy everynight. So don’t stay in a place located near the main strips (Bangka Road) if you want peace and quiet. The beach was nice, but the water was very rough (at the beginning of July). Not much swimming- just avoiding waves. Still some beach activities like parasailing and jet skiing.

Careful with the rental bikes don't leave your real passport since they just leave it in the desk not a safe. Give a copy instead and if they refuse ask to give a 2000 bah deposit.

Phuket, city in the South of Thailand, has great beaches (paradaisical) and is a great tourist attraction. Although some years ago was destroyed by the tsunami, it is now rapidly re-constructing and the tourist are coming more than ever. Lot of germans, austriacs and swiss people come to Phuket. Great night-life and great and relaxing beaches.

Eat the local spicy food even if you don't like it. Otherwise, it is very easy to get stocmach virus. We guess the spicy food might kill those virus.
