"The Pearl of the South"
Phuket is Thailand's largest island and lies in the Andaman Sea off the country's south western coast. Thje island's terrain varies from rocky beaches and long broad sweeps of sand to limestone cliffs and forrested hills. It has good beaches, tropical vegetation and a pleasant, relaxed atmosphere. The main resorts include, Patong, Kata and Karon Beach. Better beaches are scattered all around the island.
We hired a bike for the entire stay and explored a lot of the island, finding beautiful beaches.

 Really enjoyed your interesting and helpful tips about Phuket. I especially enjoyed the tip about bartering and all the hotel tips.

 The intro photo of that little island is fantastic. Renting bikes to cruise the area sounds like a wonderful idea. Probably the best way to see the place fully. Love the tour and thank you!
