10 exciting things to do in Phuket

 Today’s post is from the Travel Triangle and is about 10 exciting things to do in Phuket.   

1)    Enjoy a boat tour in Phang Nga Bay – the limestone rocks are a natural miracle; you could visit James Bond Island or the Phi Phi Islands – if you have more than one day then visit the Phang Nga Marine National Park.

2)    Revel in the charm of the ancient city architecture in Phuket Old Town – the mix of Chinese and colonial architecture is stunning – have dinner at Panwa House,   a Sino-Portuguese mansion next to the water. And the Phuket Walking Street Market every Sunday.

3)    Take a tour of the famous beaches in Phuket – there are a great many on Phuket, it’s a paradise for some; Freedom Beach, Kata Beach, Banana Beach, Laem Singh Beach, Bang Tao Beach – or stay with us or on the beach at Cape Panwa Hotel.

4)    Immerse yourself in the vibrant nightlife of the Phuket – specifically Patong!

5)    Visit the popular Big Buddha Statue  - this 45metre tall Burmese marble is a sight to behold – please visit with respect

6)    Visit the Phuket Fantasea show.

7)    Visit Promthep Cape viewpoint – for a tremendous view, but go early because there can be a lot of people wanting that photo! https://goo.gl/maps/myMc9QR4PNv

8)    Go for a jungle safari and see the varied wildlife of Phuket – Khao Lak Park and Khao Sok National Park are worth visiting.

9)    Indulge in watersports such as Scuba diving, snorkelling & water surfing – we have some of these at Cape Panwa Hotel

10) Relax with a luxury Thai spa – we have a spa at CapePanwa Hotel.

Releasing birds in the name of Buddhism

Cape+Kantary is a magazine that you will find in all the Cape and Kantary Properties. In this edition of the magazine  (Page 80) they examine the 

“misconception of freeing birds or other kinds of animals as a merit or boon to their life.” 

– quote from Khun Tirapongse Pangsrivongse – Chairman of Cape & Kantary Hotels.

The original campaign or raising awareness was started in September 2016 and we remind you here least we do not forget. As the writer Tefor Cowles wrote

-      and when the dawn is silent, you must say, “I let that happen”

At Cape and Kantary Hotels, we actively support #SOSChildrensVillages and the Thai Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. We do not serve foie gras, birds’ nest or shark’s fin in our restaurants and we also stand firmly against the exploitation of Thai elephants for commercial or entertainment purposes.
