Phuket is lush vegetation, beaches and nightlife in the form of “harmless” discos and entertainment with “18+” status. But if you are traveling with the whole family, for sure, you are interested in the answer to the question: “What to visit in Phuket with children?”. Give your little companions the opportunity to visit places of interest for them.
Phuket Zoo
Visitors (an adult ticket costs $ 14, and a child ticket costs $ 8, 5) of the zoo will be able to meet crocodiles, camels, ostriches, tigers, monkeys, toucans and peacocks, as well as attend interactive shows with the participation of some of its inhabitants. Thus, guests of all ages will be able to see elephants dancing, spinning hoops and playing basketball; thrill-seekers will be invited to lie down on an impromptu stage so that elephants can show how they can step over people without harming them.
Phuket Fanta Sea
A trip to this cultural and entertainment complex will give young travelers new impressions. It consists of several parts:
- Festival Village: is the venue for festivals, processions, state and national holidays. Walking around the Festival Village, you can buy souvenirs and admire the architecture of different styles. As for the children, there are attractions for them and Hanuman's Lair (the cave of the god of monkeys Hanuman) has been built for them, where they will have entertaining adventures.
- Golden Kinnaree Restaurant: in this restaurant you will be able to enjoy Thai, Italian, Japanese and Indian dishes, and children will surely love the mythical creatures present in the interior of the institution.
- Palace of the Elephants: people who want to admire the show in which elephants dance, perform tricks, participate in performances together with strongmen and magicians flock here.
Adults will pay $ 45 for a ticket, and children - $ 31 (the price includes the cost of lunch).
Phuket Aquarium
The Phuket Oceanarium is famous for its swimming pool, inside of which there is a glass tunnel: through its walls, children enjoy watching sea wrasses, butterfly fish, sharks, blue horse mackerel, giant sea bass. Swimming pools with starfish and turtles, the Museum of Whales and Dolphins, the demonstration of feeding stingrays and sharks (on weekends from 11:00 to 11:30) are of no less interest for young travelers.
Prices: adult tickets cost $ 3, and children tickets cost $ 1.5.
Splash Jungle Water Park
For visitors to the water park (for adults, the entrance will cost $ 37, and for children - $ 18.5), there are slides in the American, African and Asian styles (water comes from an artesian well and undergoes multi-level cleaning in automatic mode). As for the children, Splash Jungle provides them with an aqua town, where there are fountains, slides and a large barrel (after a certain period of time it overturns). And children from 12 years old will be able to try out “adult” water slides (Tube Slide, Super Bowl, Body Slide).
Monkey mountain
It is recommended to plan a visit here for everyone who rests in Phuket with children - monkeys live on the slopes of the mountain, which you can feed (you should not stroke them - they can bite), at the foot of the mountain there is a Buddhist temple, and at its top there is an observation deck (a stunning view opens up islands). It is worth considering: despite the fact that there is transport going up the mountain, you will have to climb about 700 m on foot along a spiral path.
King Rama IX Park
In the Royal Park (free admission) you can ride a catamaran on the lake, walk in the shade of trees, use free exercise equipment, spend time on the football, basketball and children's playgrounds (there are carousels, ladders, slides, tunnels).
Upside Down House and Labyrinth
Another place worth going with children is the upside-down Baan Teelanka house (for adults, a visit will cost $ 9.6, and for 4-11 year olds, $ 5.40) with an inverted interior. And nearby you will be able to find a green labyrinth of bushes (children will love this attraction-quest; a child's ticket costs $ 3.5, and an adult - $ 5).
