    • If you are in phuket you can try something different than going to the classic beaches everyday, from patong beach you can ask how to go to Freedom beach when you will agree with the price a longtail boat will carry you there(about 5-10 min) same if you are to Rawai beach. When you agree tell him what time to pick you up and when you arrive back pay him for me just the ride with the longtail boat worth the money

    • Located about 21 kilometers north of Phuket town (on your way to Phuket airport) in the area of Khao Phra there are two small waterfalls Ton Sai (close to Thalang) and Bang Pae which are surrounded by palm trees and hills (there are parking lots and small restaurants inside)
