Phuket with Kids
Your Starting Point!

What to Do in Phuket with Kids?

Travelling to Phuket with kids is much easier and safer than most people imagine. Hotels in Thailand have high standards, higher than in most Western countries, even the budget ones, and Thai people love kids and will always smile at them. Many restaurants have menus for children; finding what you need, food, medications, and clothes, even for the youngest kids, is easy.

Keeping the kids happy is easy and fun, even for the parents! Waterparks, activities, fun places, and the immense white beaches are free! Safety is good if you follow your common sense, don’t swim when the flags are red, keep an eye on them in the pool, drive safely, etc.

I arrived in Phuket in 1994 and have never left...
