Although
a small country, Thailand tourism is highly
developed; the country has a generous length of
beaches, divided in more regions.
The closest to the
Bangkok are the two regions, Central and Eastern,
which border the country’s bay. The beaches are
absolutely superb, with fine sand, clear waters,
coral reefs and luxuriant vegetation.
In the Pattaya
area, for example, you can walk on the beaches
situated at short distance of shore, numerous
beaches being here that host some truly dramatic
landscapes.
Ta Waem, from the Koh Larn island is the
most known, it has 750 meters in lengths and it has
many local boutiques with a specific charm.
The main beach
from Pattaya is very beautiful also. The many hotels and
restaurants separated of the sand strip long of about 4
kilometers by a green curtain of exotic trees, assure a
perfect alternative during the day and even after the night
comes, the night life being extremely agitated here. For
those who prefer to live in the shore hotels there are boats
for rent that can go to any of the islands.
The
South region has its own charm, its position along
the peninsula that separates The Indian Ocean of the
Thailand’s Bay offering a tropical perfect climate,
comparable with the one from Florida.
The
economic, social and touristic centre of the region
is Phuket, the only island that has a province
statute also and which, together with its
surrounding islands offer thousands of accommodation
and fun places for tourists.
Its unique landscapes,
the tropical atmosphere, the local civilization and,
why not, the extremely accessible prices made from Phuket
the most quested vacation destination from Asia.
There are at
least five or six important beaches in Phuket, each of them having own features,
being quested by visitors for their particularities.
Rawai is the fishermen’s favorite, the shore fishing
being very prolific here.Kata has a coral
reef and this is why the diving and the swimming are the
most proper. From here you can get very fast to the Poo
Island, and the hotels, restaurants and bars network is very
well developed.
Kata Noi is situated at South of Kata, is smaller
and can be the favorite of those who need to relax
and enjoy the nature.
The small reefs are an alternative for the diving
amateurs-numerous exotic fish species are there to
admire them. Karon, the second as size, is bordered
by the main road, along which the hotels and the
restaurants were built.
The life is extremely agitated in this area, many
fun places being here like the Dino Park in which a
mini golf field can be found. Nai Nan is a beach
dedicated especially to the surfers and yachting
fans.
The most quested, busy and crowded beach is Patong
from Phuket, famous for the pleasure its visitors
can enjoy.
The life is intense during the day and the night in Patong
where in the hours of the day the fun’s sense is given by
the sand and the sea.
