Free Day in Phuket
Phuket, Thailand
About This Activity
A free day in Phuket rewards those who venture away from the main beaches. Rent a scooter and head to Laem Promthep Cape for Phuket's most dramatic coastal views at sunset, or discover the quieter beaches of Nai Harn and Rawai in the south. Wat Chalong, Phuket's most important Buddhist temple, is free to visit and takes about an hour. For water activities, snorkeling gear can be rented at most beaches for 100-200 THB.
