Those who have already felt the taste of exoticism and are ready to exchange the sparkling white snows of the northern latitudes for no less sparkling white beaches of the azure seas, and Christmas trees for coconut palms, then here, on the Thai island of Phuket, in eternal summer. And among the lush tropical greenery, having tasted the real food of the gods - the indescribably delicious exotic fruits of this land, you will understand that Christmas in Phuket is Christmas in Paradise, and like in paradise, everyone will find a place here.
Thailand is a Buddhist country. On one of the stones of the island of Ko Geo Yai, at the very edge of the water, you can even see the imprint of the foot of the Buddha. But, like true Buddhists, Thais respect the religions and beliefs of their guests, and are ready to celebrate with them at least all the holidays in the world. Therefore, on the days of Christmas, and on December 25, and January 7, Santa Claus will certainly come to your beach in a red fur coat and hat, with a bag of gifts and on the back of an elephant, also dressed up in garlands of flowers and a red cap in honor of the holiday. And so that Santa Claus does not bypass your beach, someone will definitely blind snowmen from snow-white sand, and put on caps on them. And he will construct a Christmas tree from coconut shells, decorating with flowers and beads from corals and shells.
Beaches and entertainment
Phuket's main treasure is its white beaches, washed by the azure Andaman Sea. The variety is fantastic. Here, single individuals who want to live as Robinsons, and couples in love, and people who prefer comfort, and families with children will find shelter here. Five star hotels, luxury villas, small bungalows, swimming pools, restaurants, sailing trips, fishing, golf and much more will be at your service.
One of the most popular beaches, Patong, is an active recreation center with many activities: canoeing, windsurfing, yachts, water skiing, snorkeling, diving, parachuting, car racing, horseback riding. Nightlife in Patong is just as varied and adventurous. Many good restaurants, bars, clubs await guests.
Karon Beach has a more moderate nightlife. Along the road - restaurants, boutiques, art galleries.
Kata Beach is the smallest of Phuket's three main beaches. The remoteness from the main nightlife center of the island and the virgin nature make it attractive for lovers of silence.
