Cities & regions
Where to go and how they differ — a short guide to the main cities and resorts.
Phuket
The country's largest island and main resort, a base for yacht charters (the Chalong and Ao Po marinas). The Sino-Portuguese Old Town, the Big Buddha, the Patong/Kata/Karon beaches and an international airport hub.
Phi Phi
Islands of sheer limestone cliffs and turquoise water: Maya Bay (the beach from the film 'The Beach'), snorkelling coves, grottoes. The classic goal of a day yacht trip.
The Similan Islands
A national marine park in the Andaman Sea: Thailand's best diving and snorkelling, powder-white beaches and granite boulders. The season runs November to April.
Phang Nga
A bay of karst limestone stacks: James Bond Island (Ko Tapu), hidden lagoons in sea caves reached by kayak, mangrove channels. A cinematic landscape.
Krabi
The mainland coast opposite Phuket: the Railay peninsula with its rock climbing, the Ao Nang resort, the emerald islands of Ko Hong and Ko Lanta. Cliffs, beaches and quiet bays.
Racha and Coral
Islands near Phuket with the clearest water around: reef snorkelling, calm beaches, short day trips. Handy for a private day on the water.
Housing rental
Rental and purchase live on the real estate site. We speak the relocator's language: a yearly contract, deposit, minimum term and whether the contract works for a residency application.

Bank account in Thailand: what to consider
We winter in Phuket, and a local account held up our whole move-in: the first bank turned us away on a tourist visa, the second asked for a Certificate of Residence we didn't have. Here's how opening a bank account in Thailand actually works in 2025 — why a tourist visa isn't enough, which banks are friendlier to foreigners, and what to prepare in advance. Facts with caveats, no promises.
Taking a pet to Thailand: certificates and permit
We flew to winter in Phuket with our dog and nearly wrecked the move — we woke up to it three weeks out. Here's the honest version of how taking a dog to Thailand works: the DLD permit, the chip, the rabies shot, the titer question and quarantine — and where we almost tripped ourselves.
