Parasailing in Phuket
If you have visited any of the major beaches in Phuket then surely you have noticed there are an abundance of parasailing operations working from sunrise until sunset. They spend the day pulling tourists around the coves, dangling from a parachute for a quick thrill. Quick is the key word here, the average ride is about 4 minutes long.

Phuket Aquarium
The Phuket Aquarium is located in the mid-western part of Phuket Thailand in Cape Panwa. It offers a variety of aquatic life from around Thailand and Phuket. Outside there are some mangrove trees and other vegetation as well as a sea turtle habitat. The aquarium boasts that it is educational, although I didn't find myself learning anything while I was there. It is however an inexpensive way to spend some time out of the sun and is a good value for the price. For a couple hundred baht you can easily spend an hour or 2 walking the interior and exterior of the aquarium viewing aquatic life in tanks.

Tiger Kingdom Phuket
Many of us have mixed feelings about animal tourism. I know I am not a huge fan but it exists and some conditions are better than others when it comes to the treatment of animals. All of those controversies aside this is a full review on what you get and what to expect if you visit Tiger Kingdom Phuket.

3 Places in Phuket to Watch a Sunrise
Living on the island of Phuket in Thailand for years I often found that there were many blogs listing places to go and things to do that were either out dated or the people writing them had absolutely no experience in the location. One of the things I was looking for was places to view a sunrise so I could take some morning photographs. I found several blogs with bullet style lists that just regurgitated the same places over and over again. It almost seemed like these blogs were just listing places they themselves had found using an online search and posted the lists simply to get views.
