Luggage And Bags: You really could just take one small suitcse with your essentials in, then after you have been shopping and restocked your wardrobe with fake billabong etc you can buy another suitcase for a fraction of the price to take it all home in!
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Cotton clothes are best as its very sticky, light and loose is more comfortable!
Take sandals and a rain coat if youe dont like getting wet! the rain is warm, but it can be heavy! I actually quite liked it, it was nce after being sticky and hot!
Rash vests are a must they are only around £15 each and have a spf of 50+ great for everyone especially kids, snorkellers or anyone! ( they are like t-shirts made out of swimwear material)
Toiletries & Medical Supplies: no real need to panic about these, there are tons of chemists in Phuket and they all sell the top brands at a lot less than you can buy them at home!
Photo Equipment: Well, either bring lots and lots of film or an extra memory card for your digital camera. there is so much to see you will take far more pictures than you will imagine!
Camping/Beach/Outdoor Gear: Just the usual cossies and towels, a water carrier/cooler are always nice for carrying your bottled water around in and for keeping it cool. You must remember your hat, the sun is a bit of a scorcher, so you will burn! Sunglasses too were a godsend, that white sand does really reflect the sun!
Miscellaneous: a sarong always comes in handy, I used my every day , as a skirt, to cover my shoulders, to cover my legs etc etc......
also take a small backpack fo any boat tripsetc, if you can get a "dry bag" these are brillant for canoeing or caving or anything to protect your valuables from getting wet!
