Take a trip to sandy Southern Thailand, where the shorelines are serene and the beaches pristine. From the pearly white shorelines of Phuket’s Patong and Nai Harn beaches to the lost islands of Koh Gum, Koh Kangkaw and Koh Yeepoon, Southern Thailand offers a splendid balance between resort-like charm and hidden excitement. Plunge headfirst on an adventure to soak up both sun and culture, spending time relaxing on the ambient shores of Khao Lak or bumping arms with the locals in the markets at Ranong. Lose yourself in the jungle or find tropical fish in the ocean – just remember that discovery comes naturally in a place as full of life as this.
