Thailand 's southern provinces of Phuket, Phangnga and Krabi have long been the destinations of people looking for rest and relaxation. Sea, sand and sun are in abundance, complementing great seafood, unspoiled national parks and a unique culture. For those that pursue an active lifestyle and enjoy the challenges of gofing, the three provinces offer perhaps the utimate high. Phuket, Phangnga and Krabi all have world-class golf courses some designed by renowed international architects and star golfers. The courses are set among a variety of exciting surroundings like amidst green mountains and by the azure sea. Wherever they are, all have modern facilities and impeccable services. Green and caddie fees are always very affordable. Some courses boast excellent cuisine and accommodation. All can cater to any program for groups large and small. This publication gives you valuable insight into the golf courses in the three provices, but there is nothing that can compare to actually playing on one, or a few, of them. We believe that after one visit, you will likely return for more glorious golfing by the Andaman Sea.

Palm Golf Club Phuket will become a fast favorite with all golfing
enthusiasts. The 18-hole, par 72, 6,434 yards course sits amid beautiful
rolling hills, providing a scenic backdrop to the lush green fairways.
This is one of the five most beautiful golf courses in Thailand, with a standard 18-hole, 72 -par, 6,483 yards course. The
course has three distinct characters - in some parts hilly, in others
laced with waterways, and in others it has lush green fairways. Golfers
need to be good, and well-prepared, to perform well on this course. But
whatever the score, there's no doubt that golfers will enjoy those lush
green fairways.
The standard 18 hole, 71 par, 6,850 yard Laguna Phuket Golf Club is surrounded by the Andaman Sea and mountain scenery. Max
