Phuket is the largest island in Thailand. With beautiful beaches, excellent food options and friendly people, it is an excellent place to get away on a break. It is a great experience to stroll down Surin Beach and take in the glorious white sand and clear water. You can even snack on local delicacies offered by vendors such as ice pops and coffee. Or have a wonderful meal in one of the premium restaurants that line the area. If a quiet beach is what you are looking for, you can check out Banana Beach or Laem Sing Beach. You can even take a ferry and explore other islands such as Koh Lon and Ko Racha Yai. There is so much to do in Phuket that you may want to spend more than just a few days here. If so, check out this listing of the best short-term rentals in Phuket, Thailand.
