Things to do in Phuket : September 2008
Phuket may be the ultimate beach holiday destination in the world but there’s a lot more to experience than translucent blue seas, powdery white beaches and guaranteed sunshine. Check out the following ideas of alternative activities to season your holiday fun.

Jet Boating

Experience the thrill of your life

If surfing is a bit too tame for you, then you should try the definitive adrenaline rush on water. It’s a phenomenon called Jet Boating – Thailand’s ultimate in excitement and thrills. The ride is best described as being in a rally-car on water – experience massive sideway slides, 360° spins, fishtails and breathtaking power stops. The jet-boat reaches speeds of up to 70 km/h. It's extreme and loads of fun: an absolute must for people who want the thrill of a lifetime!

Check out: Phuket's View Points
Laem (Cape) Phrom Thep
If you are looking for a change from the beach, why not check out the views from Phuket’s hilltop view points? Laem (Cape) Phrom Thep is the most popular and largest of all the view points. It is a headland on the extreme southern end of Phuket about 19 kilometres from Phuket City. Close to Laem Phrom Thep is Windmill View Point. It can be found in the south of Phuket between Nai Harn and Promthep. As the name would suggest the hilltop boasts a modern windmill – the only one on the island. Three-beach View Point is a very tastefully developed facility with a Thai-style sala which offers superb views on several levels. From this point Kata Noi, Kata and Karon Beaches can be seen, and out to sea is Koh Poo Island. It is one of the island's best views.

This is a great way to experience magnificent vistas and cool breezes. Most view points have refreshments available. Don’t forget your camera.
