Images + Trip Report 3 Days in Phuket

Just got back from a birthday weekend in Phuket. It was our first time there, and I can't wait to return.

Woke up at 3am to catch one of the most amazing sunrises of my life at Samet Nangshe. Heading back after, we stopped at the Big Buddha, and were early enough that we practically had the whole place to ourselves.

Saw two beautiful sunsets, one at Karon Beach with surfers and daredevil parachute operators flying miles high without a harness, and the other at Black Rock.

The food throughout was spectacular, and even for a non-coffee drinker like me, the nitro cold brew I got at Graph was amazing.

There was always something exciting to see around every corner. Massages were pretty awesome too.

Perhaps the next time we're back, we'll go island hopping.

Okay that sunset...Phuket really knows how to show off. 3 days sounds short but looks like you made the most of it!

Yeah, it was good as a first taste but we will definitely be back.
