Where to Go

Thailand

There is more visible historical evidence of past eras in Thailand than in any other South-East Asian country; ruins, temples and deserted cities, idyllic islands and palm-fringed beaches are Thailand's stock in trade. The most popular islands being Phuket, Ko Samui off south-eastern Thailand, and Phi Phi. Perhaps first among the boating attractions of the Andaman Sea, however, is Phang Nga Bay, famed for the stunning sea-mountains that rise vertically out of calm, turquoise waters. This staggeringly beautiful scenery continues around the coastline to Krabi where some of the most attractive beaches in the world can be found.
