Being Thailand’s largest island, Phuket is a dreamy destination for honeymooners seeking romance and adventure. With its stunning beaches, crystal-clear waters, and vibrant marine life, Phuket offers an array of activities that make for unforgettable memories. Here are four romantic adventures you should consider for your honeymoon.
John Gray Seacanoe
Embark on an intimate and magical journey with John Gray Seacanoe’s famous “Hong by Starlight” tour. This unique experience allows couples to explore hidden caves and lagoons (known as “hongs”) in Phang Nga Bay by canoe. As the sun sets, the real enchantment begins with a serene paddle under the starlit sky, culminating in the ritual of releasing floating “krathongs,” adorned with candles and flowers, into the water. This eco-friendly tour offers an unforgettable blend of nature and romance.
Coral and Racha Islands Full-Day Tour
For couples who love the sun and sea, a full-day tour of Coral and Racha Islands is a must. These islands, located just off the coast of Phuket, are known for their white sandy beaches and vibrant coral reefs. Spend the day snorkelling, swimming, and soaking up the sun together. The tranquil surroundings and crystal-clear waters provide the perfect backdrop for a romantic escape. Enjoy a leisurely lunch on the beach and explore the islands at your own pace, creating lasting memories.
Similan Islands
The Similan Islands, often regarded as one of the world’s top diving destinations, offer a more adventurous option for honeymooners staying at resorts in Phuket. This group of islands is known for its breathtaking underwater landscapes, including vibrant coral reefs and an array of marine life. A day trip to the Similans includes snorkelling or diving together, where you can explore the colourful underwater world hand in hand. The pristine beaches and turquoise waters make it a perfect spot for a romantic day out.
Phi Phi by Speedboat
A honeymoon in Phuket wouldn’t be complete without a visit to the iconic Phi Phi Islands. A speedboat tour to Phi Phi is an exhilarating way to experience the islands’ stunning beauty. Visit Maya Bay, made famous by the movie “The Beach,” and enjoy snorkelling in the crystal-clear waters of Loh Samah Bay. The tour also includes stops at other beautiful spots like Pileh Lagoon and Viking Cave. The thrill of exploring these famous islands together adds an adventurous twist to your romantic getaway.
