Phuket is one of those destinations that seems to appear on almost every traveller's list when planning a trip to Thailand. Famous for its tropical beaches, turquoise waters, island adventures and lively atmosphere, Phuket has become one of Southeast Asia's best-known holiday destinations. But with so many visitors travelling to Phuket every year, one question is worth asking: Is Phuket really worth visiting?
