Beaches, Buddha & jungle trek
Begin at your hotel and head to Kata Viewpoint, where you can enjoy a clear view of Kata Noi, Kata, and Karon beaches, as well as the sparkling Andaman Sea and the islands beyond on a clear day. Next, visit the Big Buddha, a 45m-tall statue made of Burmese white marble, located atop Nakkerd Hill. From here, you’ll get panoramic views of Chalong Bay, Kata, and the surrounding areas. It's now time to explore Wat Chalong, Phuket’s largest temple, which houses a stupa said to contain a relic of the Buddha. The temple complex is known for its main hall, where locals pray and light incense, and the intricate murals that depict the Buddha’s life. Take an exciting 30-minute elephant trek through the forest, where you'll ride through jungle paths and observe the surrounding wildlife.
