Planning a family holiday that keeps both kids and parents happy can be tricky… of course, this is not a problem in sunny Phuket! It’s the ultimate destination for an epic family escape to Thailand, and here are some of the wonderful experiences that await.

Spend Time at Bangtao Beach
This one’s a no-brainer. Head to Bangtao Beach, one of the island’s longest and most beautiful stretches of white sand. Build sandcastles (make it a friendly parents vs kids competition), paddle in the waves, or just soak up the sun. Pro tip: Stay at a beachfront resort here like SAii Laguna Phuket, which offers spacious suites with direct access to the shore, so you are never far from the sun, sand and surf!

Enjoy Resort Activities
When you stay at a luxury resort in Phuket, like the one mentioned above, there’s never a dull moment. Take to the water with kayaking or paddleboarding, while sailing lessons are also on offer for kids aged seven and up. On land, try archery, beach tennis, or cycling. Such properties also have a kids’ club with fun activities like Thai dancing, cookie making, treasure hunts, and games that will keep the little ones happily occupied while you unwind!

Visit Key Attractions
There are lots of family attractions in Phuket when you are ready to explore. Head to Phuket Aquaria at Central Phuket Floresta to see exotic denizens of the deep as well as adorable penguins. Cool off with the thrills on offer at Splash Jungle Water Park or enjoy ziplining amidst the treetops at Flying Hanuman. End your day in style at Phuket FantaSea, featuring a dazzling show of acrobatics, stunts, and even elephants on stage!

Take a Trip to the Khai Islands

For more adventure, some resorts organise excursions to the idyllic Khai Islands, just 15 minutes off Phuket’s east coast. These small gems in Phang Nga Bay are perfect for swimming, snorkelling, or simply lazing on the sand with your nearest and dearest. When hunger strikes, go to one of the nearby restaurants or enjoy a picnic, before heading back into the crystal-clear waters… it’s island bliss at its best!
