You and your family have been there and done everything there is for an Australian to do (and that is saying a lot!) so it’s time to go farther afield for your holiday. There are a lot of reasons why Thailand is one of our top foreign tourist destinations, it’s nearby, affordable and friendly, what more could we ask? The Kingdom has so much to offer, and a tried-and-true favourite is the beachside town of Phuket on the Gulf of Thailand. Phuket is a terrific destination for families, providing a wealth of fun and educational experiences for kids, your whole family will love it! It would be easy enough to just spend your entire holiday hanging out on the beach and splashing around in the warm surf and sea, but you would be missing out on all the other wonderful things Phuket has to offer!
