your fancy, this island has it all. Phuket and its surrounding water's are world renowned for their spectacular beauty and nature's artistic hand. Phang Nga Bay to the northeast of Phuket has been the set of two 'James Bond movies' as well as others. Not forgetting the more recent filming of 'The Beach' on the islands to the south of Phang Nga.
For those who like to splash around in the water, one can go snorkelling along one of shores of the west coast or take a dive trip to one of the many islands lying off shore. You charter a yacht and spend your days drifting from island to island or go windsurfing.

Elephant trekking is a new attraction on the island. Due to a decrease in the logging industry throughout Thailand, many of these animals have been brought to Phuket. What a wonderful way to see the jungles of this area, sitting atop one of the largest creatures that roam our planet, away from the buzz of cities and the office.
On arrival, it is evident from the many plantations one passes that farming is still a source of income on Phuket. Many of these offer tours where one can see how rubber is tapped or coconuts harvested or you can visit one of the many orchid farms.
There is simply so much to do. If planning a business trip, rather than a holiday, it may be advised to take a few days leave at the same time. You'll be well pleased you did. Relax around the hotel pool, go out on the town or wander around the temples…this island has much to offer.

Climate
There are two season,rainy season and the hot season. Rain rarely lasts longer than a few hours in the tropics and the sun soon shows itself again. Average temperatures in Phuket are between the 25 to 30 degree mark year round, with it being slightly cooler during the rainy season. This is an island for all season and there is something to offer the visitor, whatever the weather.
