National parks in Phuket draw in nature lovers with their extensive range of exotic flora and fauna, impressive waterfalls, and natural caves. Phuket also has many beachside parks that combine cooling sea breeze with easy access to the ocean. And don't forget the sensational viewpoints that afford sweeping vistas over this lush island.
There's an entrance fee when visiting a national park in Thailand, which goes towards maintaining the many facilities onsite and paying the park rangers. For tourists, the rates are around 200 baht for adults and 100 baht for kids, though they can vary from park to park.

Khao Phra Thaeo National Park

Located in the northern part of Phuket, Khao Phra Thaeo National Park is the island's last significant virgin rainforest. You can spend a morning taking a leisurely walk up by Tonsai Waterfall. There's also an 8-km trail right through the park from Bang Pae Waterfall to Ton Sai.
It's a good idea to hire a guide to explore the national park. Most of the forest's wildlife tends to stay out of sight, but your guide should be able to point out the telltale sounds of all sorts of animals. A small museum and information centre is located near the bottom of the waterfall.

The hilltop has a bronze statue of Phraya Ratsada Nupradit, the first Governor of Phuket. It's a fairly short drive up Rang Hill, with parking areas near Phuket View Restaurant and at the summit. There's plenty of covered and non-covered seating, while its one-way system at the top assures safe parking and access.

もっと読むPhang Nga Bay is known for its limestone karsts that jut vertically out of the emerald-green water. James Bond Island and Koh Panyee are just 2 of the more famous spots in this bay. The best means of enjoying the spectacular scenery, with only brief encounters with the tourist crowds at James Bond and Koh Panyee, is by boat from the northern end of Phuket. A leisurely day of cruising through the dramatic limestone islands, occasionally stopping to enjoy quiet beaches, is far more rewarding than the standard bus-boat tour.
