As for the food you can eat with little in the various sea food located in the parallel street to the waterfront.

Phuket is a very beautiful island full of greenery, colorful flowers would stay there again.

 

The first day of vacation, because time did not promise very well, we decided to go exploring Phuket town. From Patong beachfront can take local buses with 25 baht and 40 minute ride will take you across the island. The way out of Patong is very steep, the bus will take about 50 years and goes to a crawl for some slopes ... Once we decide to Phuket to see the old area, and the Buddhist temple. We get lost among the streets and take the opportunity to eat a pancake in one of the many cafes run by Thais. Let's go back to Patong and then in the evening we go right behind our hotel where there is the Patong Food Market, the area where the evening there are many outdoor restaurants offering Thai dishes of fish in super competitive prices. These restaurants are open air sites throughout the week where we will have dinner. Two in particular we liked, which is oriented towards the Kusuma Malaysia, in fact the owners are Thai and Malaysian dell'Andaman sea near the last condominium. In these places a plate of Thai rice with egg and shrimp costs 50 baht (41 baht = 1 euro), you can eat a good bass with 250 baht. The dishes are genuine works of 'art decorated with flowers and beautiful to see, in addition to trying.

We take a tuk tuk with 300 baht and we do bring to Surin Beach, north of Patong. The beach is surrounded by greenery, at the end of the bay there are rocks and hills full of palms

Phi phi

Speedboat trip to Phi Phi Island. We have made ??a stop of an hour to Bamboo Island, uninhabited island with crystal clear sea, white sand and stunning views over the cliffs. Then we went to snorkel, then we went to lunch at Phi Phi Island. After lunch we went to see the lagoon and then to the 16 we got the beautiful Maya Bay. At Maya Bay is possible to make a small path in and reach a point where you can dive. Very impressive to walk among the trees with bare feet! I understand why The beach has been shot in that fantastic place, unfortunately now the tourists are ruining .... There are hundreds of people on the bay ... I think it's one of the major attractions of Phuket all ...

kata beach

Take a tuk tutk and we do bring to Karon beach music. As soon as I arrived at the beach Mom and we look not so convinced ... the beach is long but has behind palms hotel and zero chance that ... so I'd better go a little 'to the south and reach Kata. Take an umbrella with two sun loungers under the palm trees throughout the day at a price of 200 baht, and enjoy this fantastic beach with clear vision and the islet in front of the crab. For the tuk tuk back to the hotel will ask 400 baht

Raya island

Excursion to Raya island. To reach it takes about 40 minutes by speedboat, here the sea is rough at times and we've done some good jumps ... ... Raya has a white sand beach and a very nice, except that there are many submerged rocks in the sand and you have an eye not to slip ... but the day was very relaxing by the sea, the view from the promontory with panoramic views and observation of many lizards that roam freely near the restaurant where we had lunch which is Raya of the resort.

Wat chalong and waterfalls

Given the situation of our very crispy skin, we decided to visit the temples of Wat Chalong, the most important Buddhist shrine on the island. Take then the bus to Phuket town and the bus tuk tuk. We visit the temples in an hour or so and then come back to Phuket town, from here we continue the tutk tuk to the waterfalls .... Bad idea, the falls are not worth the visit, the highest waterfall is 5 meters and we paid to enter the beauty of 200 baht per person only because the national park, not to mention the money spent on the tuk tuk return from Phuket Town (800 baht).

The holiday is now coming to an end then we relax on the beautiful beach of Patong you will be quite busy (but not much) but it offers everything and more in a beautiful bay surrounded by green hills.
