What are the Best Things to do in Phuket?

Phuket is the largest island in Thailand and also one of its most popular destinations with tourists and those looking to teach English abroad. As a large proportion of the local population requires some knowledge of English in their everyday lives, there are always plenty of teaching jobs on offer in schools and language centers across the island. As well as a healthy job market, there are many other reasons why foreign teachers flock to Phuket. The island is home to a number of stunning white sandy beaches, as well as a range of exciting watersport options, including scuba diving, snorkeling, surfing and kayaking. If you prefer to keep your feet on dry land you can explore the island’s many fascinating temples, indulge in the delicious local cuisine, or visit the famous Big Buddha that looks down on Phuket from one of the highest points on the island.
