Phuket Things to Do Tips by hash09

The second time i went there was in Last 30 August 06, it is a wet seasons on that time, so on the first day i was there, it is a little cloudy, and it get wet when it come to everning.

Basically the weather is not that bad, but when it come to the wave at the beach, it a little rough, its different when my first visit which is in April, almost to it wet seasons. i was there for 5 days and for the 1st and 2nd day it is wet and windy, not really cool for being at the beach and i did not see anyone at the beach on that time, not many visitors as high seasons which always busy and pack with people at any part of phuket you go, and on the 3rd day until my last day there, it was so sunny, and the weather is beautiful, it make me miss the place when i am passing by the beach on my way to the airport.

by the way, i dont have a picture during wet seasons on phuket, just kind of lazy to carry my camera along, because the weather is being lazy, so it made me lazy too. i guess the next trip to phuket, i will be coming on a high seasons.

I always scare of deep water, and never wanted to go far than the shore, therefore i never wanted to do any water sports, just afraid if something happen and i will be missing somewhere inside the water. one of the reason why i dont like deep water is because i dont do swimming. hehee then its my fault.

everytime i am at the beach, the beach boy will offering a lots of water sports, and they willing to negociate with the price. when i was there, they are offering THB1500 for jetskiing, but i refuse because i always say to myself what happen IF? better not tell more what IF. But this people they just never give up of asking and they giivng me very good price, which is at THB700. So i try to kill the scare feelings i had, then i make myself brave and lets do the jetskiing.

As i am alone, so one of the beach guy company me for the ride, but he only take the ride from the shore so i did not fight myself with the wave, then when we reach to the calm part, he let me ride it myself, then i did.. it was fun, and i just enjoy the ride, that would be my second time after 4 years. the beach boy quite supprise coz i did not scared & drives as fast as i can & turn as sharp as i can.that make him have fun too.then he ask me to go to the other side of the beach, that place, really empty, no one was there for sunbeth at all, and the water, is awesome, you can see underwater and the coral extreamly beautiful. but then again my mistake, i dont have camera with me, so i dont have picture to show.but it is really beautiful.

After 30 mins we were jetkiing, it time for me to let him ride again and bring to the shore, but it not just that, the was playing with the wave, which means, he ride the jetski and fight the big wave, which made us flying about 10 meters high and it freak me out and i scream woooohhoooo!!.. that means im scared but with laugh on my face. but then again, i had fun.. he did it a few times for about 15 mins..try it out.. expacially when you on a low season, go and fight the wave.. you'll be the king.

During my first day here in phuket, i woke up very early, at 7am thai time, which is 8am malaysia time. It is a beautiful morning, very sunny. First thing i do is taking shower and ready with my beach wear, and even forgot my breakfast, and went down to the reception ask for the road to get to the beach, i just follow the direction that the reception guy gave it to me, i just walk for less then 5 mins and reach at patong beach, it is so clear over there, sunny, clean beach, blue water but not clear cristal water, many people get ready for sun burn. When i reach to the beach, i been greeting by a hawkers there which renting their sits and umbrella at THB50 for the whole day.

The people of thai tent to speak thai with me, but i just reply with smile and say i don't speak thai, and that made them interesting to talk with me. My whole day at the beach was company by the beach boy who renting they unbrella, they will always drop by to my sit and talk with me a few mins before they continue their work, very friendly of them.

When i was sitting there and put on the sun block, there is an europian men sit next to me, his age range is around 50's, and was try to talk with me, he was saying hi and i say hi to him, and he was offering himself to help me with putting a sun block on me, and said after i did yours, u should do to me too. which i think it wasn't sound nice when the guy around my dad age was asking me for such thing, i just ignore him after that.

Everyday is a beautiful day in phuket, always sunny and hot. I love to be at the beach every morning and walk along the beach before i did sunbeth there. It is in April which is almost to the low seasons, but when i was there on the 8th till 18th, it is always sunny and always fun at the beach, nice to get a brown skin there. I prefer to stay at the beach for the whole day without doing anything else, i just love beaches and i never boring stay at the beach on my own, because there are always friendly people will come and talk with you and ask for what you doing there, where u from, where u went and such things, its fun, i never alone even i am all by myself there.

As i always at the beach, i like to walk along the beach, walk with the wave came to wipe the sand, play with the wave, sometimes its even stronger than me, it can make me fall, so people around the area which watching my behave, will laugh at me, i had fun with doing that. When i was walking around the beach area, i realised that, along the beach at 80% of people doing sunburn is white people, there are really a tourist favourite area. They love to get a brown skin like asian, they said it is a beautiful to have a brown skin. I had brown skin when i get back to Kuala Lumpur, and as always, mom will complain about my skin, she prefer me to have a fair light skin, i dont understand why.

This is one of the interesting activities when you get to patong beach, besite sunburn, you also had a chance to see the whole area with doing windsurfing. The cost to do that is around THB800, but you still can nagociate for the price. They will take you for the windsurfing for 10 mins to see the whole beach area from the sky. It must be awesome to see the whole area from the sky, i did not do that as i am on budget trip.

My first time at patong beach, the beach guy has offer me to ride a jetski with price THB500 and i can ride for 30mins, i did not accept. The beach boy there are very friendly with me, and they love talking with me and talk about the area there and ask about my country. When they find me as a interesting person to talk with, they have inviting me with a free ride for the jetski, it was interesting to do that but i did not accept the invitation as i am very careful when i am alone, and have to take care of myself. I got an advice from someone which i met on the train, this old men told me "when you alone, you can see and you can listen to anything around you, but you don't trust it". I keep that advice until i got home.

The beach area is a tourist attraction, and it also a local hawkers attraction with promoting and selling their items. When you laid back at the beach, you can see so many hawkers will pass by your sits, they are selling stuff like T'shirt, bracelet, Fruits and food, expacially a stiky rice with chicken. What made me interesting is to watch once guy who will pass by with his tray full of food pack and sing "when you hungry, come to me and get the rice......." he is so fun... he even friendly.

I always love to watch people... they all just interesting people with interesting attitude. So many ladies prefer not to cover their boobies, and then i saw this small baby girl, she so cute and she walk from back of my sits and try to get to the water... she just had her shirt on, and she lost her diapers, it is fun to watch her so cute walk here and there.
Then it make me think If i always saw a lady without her top, this small girl much more excellent and dare, she have her top, but she dont have her undies... hehehehe... anyway, she so cute!!

When the time pass by you don't realised it. The people around the beach getting less and less, and you also can see people just walk around the beach area for everning excersize, or jogging at the beach, the dog also run here and there, and dogs here likes to sit next to people, when i was there at the beach, the dog always sit or laid next to me, i dont know why, i never likes dogs anyway and always afraid of them, since they like to sit or laid close to me for almost everytime i was there, also likes to walk with me, i just try to be brave then after awhile, i got use to it and still afraid to touch them.
