BEST GREEN PLACES TO VISIT IN PHUKET

Other than the sea and sun, Phuket has many other attractions just waiting for you to discover them. If your kids get bored of playing on the beach, take them to enjoy the green spaces on the island instead.

There are many picturesque places for you and your family to breathe in the fresh air and enjoy a small picnic. If you want to take a break from the beach, here are the best green spaces in Phuket that you will enjoy:

Saphan Hin Park

One of the most popular parks in Phuket is Saphan Hin Park. Although many people visit it on pleasant days, you won’t have to worry about it ever being too full of people. This park is a huge expanse of open space that plenty of people can share.
If you go in the morning or evening, you will see a few locals jogging along the pathway. Saphan Hin Park is situated in the city of Phuket. After you walk in, however, you won’t feel like you are in the city at all.
With the beautiful natural scenery, this park is a perfect place for the locals to relax after a long day at work. If you are lucky, there might be a festival or concert held in the park that you can stop by to enjoy. You can check online to see if there are any events you can attend for specific occasions.

Pru Jae San

If you’re looking to escape the city, you may want to visit Pru Jae San. Here, you will get the chance to sit back and relax near the beach.

It is an incredible place for you and your family to take a long walk as the walking paths continue for 3,500 meters. While you are walking or jogging, take the opportunity to look around and appreciate how beautiful nature is. Although Phuket is warm all year round, the trees at Pru Jae San will protect you from the sun’s rays and treat you to a cool breeze from time to time.

Bang Wad Dam

The dam is another fantastic place to visit if you enjoy nature. At Bang Wad Dam, you will see many people running and trail biking along the spillway. If you want to go on an adventure, there is a forest next to the dam that you can explore.

Keep in mind that it is dangerous to walk through the woods at night. It’s important that you plan your hike wisely so that you come back to the dam before the sun sets. When the sky turns orange, you can sit nearby the dam and admire the view of the rocky mountains from afar.

Kathu Waterfall

Playing in the water underneath a waterfall is nothing like swimming in the sea. Instead of being exposed to the sun, you will get to dip into the water under the shade of the trees at Kathu Waterfall. If you have children with you, you need to make sure that they do not run on the rocks or jump into the water. The rock surface can be extremely slippery, and the water is not deep enough for jumping. This place is more of one where everyone can sit back and unwind. You can kick things up a notch by climbing to the top of the waterfall. However, you need to be careful of every step that you take.
One misstep can lead to severe injuries. If you aren’t in the mood for adventure, simply pack a picnic to share while you enjoy the cool water of the bottom of the waterfall.
