Southern Thailand, Beaches and Islands Holidays

A tropical idyll, southern Thailand’s stunning coastline, gorgeous islands, warm seas and sun-kissed sandy beaches are a picture-prefect paradise. Most head south at the conclusion of a holiday to relax by the sea at one of the many excellent beach resorts and re-charge before the flight home. Koh Samet is the closest island to Bangkok and a morning’s drive from the capital with all others – Koh Samui, Krabi and Koh Lanta, Phuket and Khao Lak – a short flight away from the capital. Koh Samui, Krabi and Phuket are also linked by air to Chiang Mai. For those interested in wildlife, Khao Sok National Park close to Phuket is considered one of Thailand’s finest reserves with the lowland jungle supporting an astonishing range of flora and fauna, reptile and bird life including elephant, leopard and gibbon. Pettitts specialises in providing quality, tailor-made holidays and tours to southern Thailand.
